Why Choose Smoked Real Salt® for Melon?
Melon and watermelon slices are naturally sweet and refreshing, so a seasoning that adds a subtle smoky aroma without overwhelming the fruit is key. Smoked Real Salt® achieves this balance by infusing the salt with real wood smoke, creating a flavor that is smoky, smooth, and slightly fruity. This makes it uniquely suited to pair with fresh fruit, unlike typical BBQ or chili seasonings that may overpower or clash with melon’s delicate taste.
Additional Tips for Using Smoked Real Salt® on Melon
- Sprinkle lightly over chilled melon or watermelon slices for a surprising flavor boost.
- Combine with a squeeze of fresh lime or a drizzle of honey to create a gourmet fruit snack.
- Use the Cherry flavor for a sweeter, fruit-wood smoke note, or Hickory for a bolder, savory touch.
- Keep the shaker open briefly in your kitchen to enjoy the inviting aroma before serving.
