Terre Exotique Viking Smoked Salt
Scandinavians have perfected the art of keeping warm and cozy. Their famous smoked dishes conjure up images of sitting around a fire on chilly nights. Give your autumn dishes a rich, smoky depth with Terre Exotique Viking Smoked Salt. This artisanal salt comes from a legendary 10-century Viking recipe. The salt is slowly smoked before adding a mixture of aromatic spices. The result is an intense, wood-fired flavor that brings an unexpected warmth to roasted vegetables, red meats, and stews. A pinch of this salt gives a simple roast chicken a tasty grilled flavor. Its robust, earthy notes pair beautifully with hearty fall staples like root vegetables. Its fine texture makes it easy to mix into any dish.

Sal de Ibiza Fleur de Sel in Ceramic Jar
The Mediterranean isn’t an obvious first choice for autumn pantry staples but the warm notes of black garlic in this Sal de Ibiza Fleur de Sel “Mar Blau” in Ceramic Jar make it a must-have. Ajo negro, or black garlic, is marinated in salt water hand-harvested from the Mediterranean Sea. It captures the unique umami flavors of the herb in a blue-patterned ceramic jar. Add a surprising combination of vanilla, plum, caramel, balsamic vinegar, and licorice notes to your sauces, salad dressings, and aiolis. Blend this salt into a creamy bean dip to serve with roasted vegetables or use the black garlic as an unexpected rub for your Thanksgiving roast turkey. It can even be mixed into your homemade stuffing! (Psst… since this Sal de Fleur comes in such a cute jar, it’d be a perfect gift for the host of any holiday dinner parties this autumn!)

Hawaiian Black Salt in Tube
Looking for a seasoning that not only adds flavor but also visual appeal? The Hawaiian Black Salt from Terre Exotique, also known as black lava salt, delivers both.

Drop a handful of this Hawaiian Black Salt on your harvest fall salad, white meats, and seafood for a sophisticated twist. Its slightly smoky, mineral-rich profile complements the heartier flavors of fall.
