Smoked Salt

[azrocker]

So... I took a trip to Napa and found a great little spice shop. Bought some Alder Smoked Salt. I loved it and used it all. So... the question is, has anyone smoked salt?

Sure have! Desertlites told me about it when I first joined here. It's very easy. Spread salt on a tray of some sort and put it in your smoker. Smoke to desired smokiness, take out and let cool. You can make all sorts of smoked salts, each wood adds its own flavor. You can smoke peppercorns the same way.

I smoke unrefined sea salt with Hickory. It's has a great taste and has all the minerals still in it...

How long? What temp?

Yea I want to know about this one too how long and what temp ? It sounds good that is the wife will let me use real salt again. Does it work on faux salt that she thinks I'm using. I know it and didn't tell her I know it so she thinks I still used the faux.

You must have found Dean and Deluca's - isnt their salt section amazing - I think I counted 25 salts there. I bought about 7 or 8 of them
