Leila Bay's Applewood Smoked Sea Salt

Mom was in the clearance section of the supermarket the other day and came across something that sounded just as strange as it appeared delicious. A company (that has possibly gone out of business, so buy up your stocks now!) called Leila Bay Trading Company produces a condiment worthy of its very own post… Applewood Smoked Sea Salt. Leila Bay takes super high quality organic sea salt from the Pacific Ocean and literally smokes it over genuine applewood embers. The result is a complex, smoky, salty condiment that I am having a blast experimenting with. It started with putting it on my popcorn, sprinkling it on my eggs, and even as a seasoning on my hash browns. I cannot wait to use it on the grill! Now I am just eating it out of the container… explaining my insatiable thirst for the last five days! I feel as if I were camping under a starry sky, with a vibrant fire, and the fragrance of burning hardwood in the air. The resealable, air-tight glass bottle the salt is sold in keeps the pungent applewood flavor distinctive and pure. The integrity of the salt is top-notch; there are no additives, preservatives, or artificial flavorings… especially not liquid smoke! Yuck! So if you want to get your hands on something truly different, get some of Leila Bay Trading Company’s premium salts while you still can!
