    Alderwood Cold-Smoked Sea Salt

    Regular Price $7.96

    Authentic Wood-Fired Flavor. Zero Artificial Shortcuts. 

    Let’s clear the air: most "smoked" salts on the market are just standard salt sprayed with artificial liquid smoke. At San Francisco Salt Company, our culinary science team keeps things authentic. 

    Introducing our signature Alderwood Cold-Smoked Salt. We start with pure, pristine sea salt and slowly cold-smoke it over real, untreated Pacific Northwest Alderwood. By meticulously controlling the airflow and keeping the temperature low (cold-smoking), it prevents the salt crystals from degrading while allowing the rich, sweet, and savory wood smoke to bind naturally to the salt. The result is an intense, authentic campfire flavor that transforms ordinary meals into culinary masterpieces.

    Inspected, packaged, and shipped rapidly from our state-of-the-art culinary hub in Republic, Missouri, this is the secret weapon for BBQ pitmasters, professional chefs, and home cooks alike.

    The Science of Grain:

    • Fine Grain: Your everyday flavor enhancer. Dissolves rapidly, making it the perfect secret ingredient for BBQ dry rubs, marinades, sauces, and hearty chili.

    FAQs

    Cold-smoked sea salt is made by exposing sea salt to real wood smoke at low temperatures for an extended period. The cold-smoking process allows the smoke aromatics to penetrate the salt crystals without cooking them or altering their texture. The result is a salt that carries genuine smoke flavor. Our Alderwood Cold-Smoked Sea Salt is made with real Pacific Northwest Red Alderwood, the same wood used in traditional Pacific Northwest salmon smoking.

    Alderwood produces a mild, slightly sweet smoke, clean and gentle, traditionally associated with Pacific Northwest seafood and salmon. Hickory is bolder, more assertive, and bacon-forward, the classic American BBQ smoke. If you want a smoked salt that enhances without dominating, choose Alderwood. If you want a big, unmistakable BBQ smoke statement, choose Hickory.

    Real wood smoke, always. San Francisco Salt Company never uses liquid smoke or artificial smoke flavoring in any of our smoked salts. The salt is cold-smoked over actual Pacific Northwest Red Alderwood in a controlled smoking process, not sprayed, not flavored, not treated with smoke compounds.

    Fine. For dry rubs, Fine grain distributes more evenly across the protein's surface, ensuring consistent smoke flavor in every bite. Coarse is better for finishing, sprinkling over a finished dish or using in a grinder at the table, where you want concentrated smoke hit and visible crystal texture.

    Alderwood pairs best with seafood (especially salmon and oysters), white and pink meats (pork, chicken), eggs, and root vegetables. Its mild sweetness also works well with cocktail rims and popcorn. For beef brisket and bold BBQ, Hickory will give you more smoke impact.

    Yes! Authentic smoked salt is a massive differentiator for commercial BBQ, snack brands, and sauce manufacturers. You can purchase in bulk directly on this page with free shipping on orders up to 400lbs or contact our customer service team for orders over 400lbs to coordinate freight.
