Organic Citrus Fish Salt Seasoning

Product descriptionDiscover Biova Organic Fish Salt, a finely balanced seasoning blend made from coarse Indian sun flakes, lemon myrtle and lemon peel. The slightly yellow salt flakes add a subtle citrus freshness to light dishes.The carefully composed organic recipe delivers a clean, natural aroma that enhances the inherent flavour of fish, seafood and vegetables. Gentle processing helps preserve the structure and character of the sun flakes as well as the essential oils of the citrus ingredients.In everyday cooking, Organic Fish Salt is ideal as a finishing salt at the table, for summer salads, bowls and light poultry dishes. It also quickly refines marinades, dressings and Asian-style dishes with a fresh, well-balanced citrus note.OriginThe salt base consists of Indian sun flakes from salt-rich coastal regions with an intense sunny climate. The Biova seasoning blend is refined and packed in Germany.Cultivation / production / harvestThe sun flakes are created by the slow evaporation of seawater in shallow ponds and are gently skimmed off and dried. Biova then blends them evenly with dried lemon myrtle and coarsely chopped lemon peel.Special featuresTypical are the coarsely granulated, slightly yellow sun flakes, which clearly stand out from conventional table salt. In the bulk version, this granulated seasoning salt is particularly interesting for professional kitchens with higher usage.Differences in origin and processingUnlike refined industrial salt, the structure and mineral character of the Indian sun flakes are largely preserved. The fresh citrus aroma comes exclusively from real plant components, not from added flavourings.Taste & aromaThe seasoning blend tastes pleasantly salty with a clear, fresh citrus note. Lemon myrtle adds a slightly herbal nuance, while lemon peel provides natural fruitiness and an aroma reminiscent of freshly grated lemon zest.IngredientsIngredients:Salt (Indian sun flakes)Lemon myrtleLemon peelSuggested usesUse as a finishing salt for grilled or pan-fried fish and seafood just before serving.Season light poultry, summer salads, bowls and quick vegetable stir-fries.Add to marinades, dressings and Asian-style dishes for a fresh, natural citrus note.Product specificationCountry of origin: GermanyGrain size: granulated / crushed / coarseColour: yellow

Erlenrauchsalz Salish Alderwood Art | Granulat | 1-3 mm | kaltgeräuchert
Smoked Alderwood Sea Salt Granules, Salish Style

Product descriptionOur Salish-style alderwood smoked salt starts with natural sea salt that is gently cold-smoked over alder wood. The coarse brown granules (1–3 mm) look much like traditional foods smoked over wood.Several days of cold-smoking in the Biova manufactory give this smoked salt an intense yet well-balanced smokiness with a mild saltiness. Careful processing ensures an even colour, stable aroma and reliable quality, making it particularly attractive for bulk buyers.In the kitchen, alderwood smoked salt adds an authentic smoky note to grilled dishes, stews, salads and vegetarian dishes. Thanks to its coarse grain size, the granulated smoked salt is ideal for grinders, BBQ rubs, marinades and custom spice blends.OriginThe sea salt comes from selected coastal regions in Germany and Croatia with clean sea air and a temperate climate. In Germany it is artisanally refined into alderwood smoked salt at the Biova production facility.Cultivation / production / harvestThe sea salt is obtained by evaporating seawater and then gently dried. Biova then cold-smokes the coarse granules for up to 16 days over alder wood, with several smoking intervals, turning and aeration phases.Special featuresTypical are the natural alderwood smoke aroma, the mild salinity and the granulated grain size of around 1–3 mm. The brown smoked salt is supplied in bulk specifically for high-volume users, foodservice, spice grinders and spice blends.Differences in origin and processingSlight differences in the mineral content of the German and Croatian salt sources subtly influence crystal structure and solubility. Traditional cold-smoking over alder wood clearly sets this smoked salt apart from industrially flavoured smoked salts.Taste & aromaOn the palate, a mild, well-balanced saltiness combines with a clearly perceptible but not overpowering smokiness. The aroma recalls freshly smoked foods and a classic alderwood fire, without any artificial off-notes.Suggested usesSeason grilled dishes, stews, soups and salads with a fine smoky noteAs a flavour component in marinades, BBQ rubs and sauces for meat, fish and vegetablesFor spice grinders, custom blends, and vegetarian or vegan cookingProduct specificationCountry of origin: Germany, CroatiaGrain size: Granules, approx. 1–3 mm, granulated / coarseColour: Brown
