Beechwood Smoked Salt is a premium French Guérande sea salt, gently smoked over beechwood to deliver an exceptional flavor experience. What truly sets this salt apart is its unique wet salt texture - soft, clumpy, and slightly sticky to the touch. Unlike most brands that rely on artificial flavoring, our salt undergoes a meticulous, elongated smoking process that enhances its natural flavor while preserving its distinct damp feel, ensuring a more robust and authentic seasoning.

Beechwood Smoked Salt Details
Experience the superior flavor of Beechwood Smoked Salt, crafted from hand-harvested French Guérande Sea Salt and naturally smoked over beechwood for 10 days. This wet salt offers a robust, authentic smoky flavor with a woodsy undertone, enhancing any dish with a clean, complex taste. The wet salt texture plays a crucial role in its flavor profile, as it allows the seasoning to cling to food more effectively, ensuring a rich smoky essence in every bite.
For a better understanding of this salt's unique texture and characteristics, here’s a breakdown of the differences between wet and dry salts:
Our Beechwood Smoked Salt retains a soft, damp texture because it is naturally dried by the sun and retains some moisture content. This sun-drying process gives the salt its naturally moist, clumpy, and chunky texture. This wet salt is ideal for enhancing dishes with a full, rich flavor as it adheres better to food compared to dry salts.
Recipes and Tips:
Sprinkle Beechwood Smoked Salt on roasted pork for a rich, smoky flavor that complements the meat's natural sweetness and enhances its savory notes. This wet salt's slightly clumpy texture clings to the meat, ensuring every bite is infused with smoky goodness.
You can also add a touch of Beechwood Smoked Salt to fresh sliced tomatoes, where the moist, soft grains melt into the surface, elevating their flavor with a subtle smoky depth.
For a finishing touch, use it on corn on the cob to add a delicious, smoky twist. The wet salt sticks to the buttered corn, bringing all the flavors together beautifully.
Nutritional Facts:
Beechwood Smoked Salt combines the distinctive taste of smoked sea salt with the essential minerals found in natural sea salt. Notably, wet salts like Beechwood Smoked Salt tend to retain more nutrients than dry salts, such as sodium, potassium, iron, calcium, and magnesium.
These minerals play key roles in fluid balance, muscle contractions, and heart health, although they are present in trace amounts. The smoking process infuses the salt with a rich, smoky flavor, making it a flavorful choice for enhancing dishes.
Using Beechwood Smoked Salt in moderation allows you to enjoy its robust flavor while potentially reducing overall salt intake, making it a suitable option for those looking to manage sodium consumption without sacrificing taste.
Storage and Usage Tips:
Keep Beechwood Smoked Salt in its original airtight grinder jar to preserve its flavor and texture.
