Chef’s Blend Smoked Salt: 42-Hour Smoke for Rich Flavor

Discover the Chef's Blend Smoked Duration: Elevate Your Culinary Experience

If you're searching for a smoked salt that offers a rich, complex flavor with an extended smoking duration, the Chef’s Blend Smoked Real Salt is your ultimate choice. Crafted with care and smoked for an impressive 42 hours, this blend delivers a deep, robust smoky flavor that enhances any dish without overpowering it.

What is Smoked Salt and Why Does Duration Matter?

Smoked salt is a unique seasoning made by infusing natural salt with smoke from sustainably sourced, bark-free wood. The smoking duration directly influences the intensity and complexity of the smoky flavor:
  • Shorter smoking times (around 30 hours) yield a lighter, more subtle smoke flavor.
  • Longer smoking times (like 42 hours for Chef’s Blend) create a richer, more layered taste with hints of espresso and cocoa.
Unlike many commercial smoked salts that use artificial flavors or liquid smoke, Smoked Real Salt is smoked naturally with no additives, ensuring a clean, authentic taste.
“Smoked salt is salt that's been infused with smoke from natural, bark-free wood in a smoker. Many smoked salts are smoked for around 48 hours, but you can smoke them for a shorter or longer period depending on how bold you want the smoky flavor.” – Redmond Life
