When it comes to turning an ordinary dish into an unforgettable experience, the answer is simpler than you might think—it’s all about the salt. Colin Burslem, Culinary Director at the Joseph Richard Group, explains that more and more diners are seeking new flavors, and specialty salts are transforming the kitchen into an exciting culinary playground.
Have you ever tried black charcoal salt? Or black lava salt? How about Hawaiian red salt? For instance, the red salt gets its deep color from iron-rich volcanic clay, bringing a traditional seasoning with a modern twist.
In upscale steakhouses, smoked salt is often used to finish a dish. In Italian restaurants, salt with fennel might garnish a beef carpaccio, or black lava salt could accompany freshly baked bread.
Salt is no longer just a seasoning—it’s elevating food into a true art form.
So next time you’re looking for a way to enhance your dish, think beyond standard table salt and explore a whole new world of flavors and culinary experiences.
