Where Does This Intense Smoky Flavor Come From?

Typical of Nordic cuisine, the smoky flavors come from an ancient technique of preserving meats and fish through wood smoking. This process results in a unique, particularly strong and captivating taste reminiscent of grilling, barbecue, wood, and salt. Smoked condiments, like Smoked Salish salt, go very well with red meats but also sweet vegetables like carrots or sweet potatoes.

How Is Terre Exotique's Smoked Salish Salt Prepared?

100% natural, without preservatives, Salish salt is harvested from evaporation ponds. It is then smoked with red alderwood, a tree native to North America. Its name is related to its bark, which turns red after being cut. This tree can withstand cold winter temperatures, reaching as low as -20°C.

The History Behind Smoked Salish Salt

The Origins of Smoked Salish Salt

This smoked salt originates from the state of Washington, USA. The term "Salish" refers to the original language of many Native American tribes in the state of Washington. Over time, the term "Salish" became the name for their territories, which encompassed British Columbia in Canada, northern Montana, and northern Idaho. Today, the Salish territory of "first nations" is limited to small scattered reserves that are still striving for autonomy.
