Product Description

This Red Gum Smoked Salt in a stoneware jar is produced by renowned Australian saltmakers, Olsson’s.

Smoked salt has been a favourite Scandinavian seasoning for centuries, dating back to the time of Vikings who infused sea salt with smoke from native wood fires. The Olsson family has continued this proud Nordic tradition by smoking their Australian sea salt flakes, from South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula, over native river red gum (eucalyptus camaldulensis) for 72 hours in the traditional northern European style. The smoking results in a unique salt enhanced with the aromatic and complex characteristics of the Australian red gum wood. We love it!

about the producer

The Olsson Family have been making solar sea salt since the 1948 and is the oldest family owned and operated sea salt maker in Australia.  To make it’s sea salt, Olsson’s use the method called “solar evaporation”. Solar salt is produced by the action of sun and wind on seawater in large ponds. The seawater evaporates in successive ponds until the seawater is fully concentrated and the salt then crystallizes on the floor of the pond. It is then scooped up, washed in seawater, dried and packaged. That’s it. There are no chemical processes involved in the manufacture of their products, which is why we guarantee it is perfectly natural.
