Organic smoked salt Swabian style, cold-smoked 1–1.6 mm

Product description

Our organic smoked salt Swabian style is a brown, shimmering sea salt with a fine to flaky grain and an intense cold-smoked aroma. Produced in Germany, it evokes notes of bacon and log fire and gives hearty dishes an authentic smoky character.

In a small artisan smokehouse, the sea salt is cold-smoked for one week over fir and beech wood following a traditional Swabian recipe. This creates a complex yet well-balanced flavour. Biova smoked salt is supplied in bulk, carefully quality-checked and designed to deliver consistent, professional results in kitchens and food production.

The smoked salt is highly versatile – use it as a finishing salt at the table or as an ingredient in marinades, stews and barbecue recipes. Vegetarian and vegan dishes in particular benefit from the hearty smokiness reminiscent of bacon, without containing any animal ingredients.

Origin

This organic smoked salt is produced in Germany and refined in Saxony-Anhalt using recipes from the Swabian Jura. Regional smoking traditions and carefully selected sea salt qualities form the basis for Biova’s consistently high quality.

Cultivation / production / harvest

The base is traditionally produced sea salt, gently dried and sieved to a grain size of 1.0–1.6 mm. It is then cold-smoked for one week at low temperatures over fir and beech wood so that the structure and smoky aroma of every single crystal are preserved.

Special features

A key characteristic is the combination of fir and beech wood, which produces a multi-layered but not overpowering smoke profile. The brown colour comes solely from the smoking process, and the fine / flaky grain makes Biova smoked salt ideal as brown bulk salt for high-volume users.

Differences in origin and processing

Unlike many smoked salts on the international market, this sea salt is consistently cold-smoked rather than hot-smoked in Germany. The Swabian style with fir and beech wood clearly stands out from variants with hickory or liquid smoke and is manually monitored throughout the smoking process.

Taste & aroma

The smoked salt has an intense smoky scent with resinous and woody notes reminiscent of an open fireplace. On the palate, the natural salinity of the sea salt combines with a savoury, bacon-like flavour, while the fine / flaky grain dissolves quickly and distributes the aroma evenly.

• As a bacon alternative for seasoning scrambled eggs, omelettes and hearty breakfast dishes
