5 ways with Black Garlic Sea Salt

A savoury flaked salt for finishing or layering flavour, our Pure Sea Salt with Black Garlic combines our hand-harvested sea salt flakes with the deep, mellow flavour of black garlic. Made from garlic that has been slowly aged until it develops rich, caramelised notes, it brings a rounded sweetness and umami depth.

The result is a special salt with layers of flavour: deeply savoury, gently sweet and totally delicious. Sprinkle it over simple ingredients to add instant complexity.

Here are a few examples of how we’ve been cooking with it:

The ultimate tomato salad

Scatter a generous pinch over sliced, ripe tomatoes with good olive oil and fresh herbs, allowing the savoury sweetness of the salt to bring out the natural sweetness of the tomatoes. Add creamy mozzarella, feta or a handful of toasted seeds for a pleasing texture contrast.

Grilled vegetables with whipped ricotta

For an impressive starter or side, spoon whipped ricotta onto a plate and top with smoky, charred vegetables like courgettes, aubergines or peppers. Finish with Pure Sea Salt with Black Garlic for a boost of savoury depth that brings everything together.

Double garlic chips

Give chips a double hit of garlic. Sprinkle hot, crispy chips with our Black Garlic Salt while they’re fresh from the fryer or oven, then serve alongside a creamy garlicky mayonnaise for dipping.

The finishing touch for cheese on toast

Cheese on toast is already a classic, but a few flakes of black garlic salt make it even better. Sprinkle over melted cheese just before serving for a punch of umami flavour that cuts through the richness and adds a subtle sweetness. It works especially well with mature Welsh Hafod cheddar and other strong cheeses. Serve with a lemon-dressed green salad for a quick lunch or supper.

Rich savoury dishes

Black garlic’s deep, complex flavour makes this salt a natural match for earthy ingredients. Try it over herby fried mushrooms, roasted aubergine, creamy pasta dishes or rich meat recipes where it adds another layer of savoury flavour without overpowering the other ingredients.
