Saltan Salts- Gourmet Seasoning, How to Spice Up your BBQ!

            Now everybody can learn how to cook food. I personally make a mean scrambled egg. But the difference in taste lies not only in the way the food is cooked (although it is a big factor), it also lies in how the food is prepared. This is especially true if you’re cooking meat.

            For example, anyone can grab a steak and grill it. Grill it at the same heat for the same amount of time and two amateur chefs will have very similar tasting steaks. What sets apart a great chef from an amateur chef is how the chef seasons the steak. Now professional chefs create their own seasoning and add all their own choice herbs and spices. Sounds delicious, doesn’t it?

            The amateur cook does not need to look any further for seasoning though. Gourmet seasoning is easy to come across! Instead of spending hours and trial after trial attempting to create the best seasoning for your steak, you can just buy one that is already proven to be…gourmet!

            Imagine on a hot summer day you host a BBQ at your own house pool. All your guests are drinking coronas and waiting for the meat to cook. You have plenty of lime for your alcohol loving friends, but you personally feel like the BBQ could use a hint of something original. So what do you do? Check out the Saltan Salts range of Gourmet Seasonings or Rock Salts... Think of Tomato and Onion Rock Salt for a Summery Tang, Smoked Applewood Salt to bring out the Smokey flavor in your meat, or for something original- try HICKORY SMOKED MAPLE Flavor ,  LEMON AND CORIANDER Flavour  on those delicious steaks you’re preparing. Your guests are loving the smell, and the alcohol is only making them hungrier.

 

And then they take a big bite into your delicious steak, those beautiful Summery flavors go perfectly with the taste of Corona and lime. All of a sudden you have the best BBQ they remember. And it’s all because you used a little bit of something special from Saltan Salts, Gourmet Everyday!
