Trader Joe's Spicy Pink Salt with Crushed Red Chili Pepper, 198g

When considering the fundamentals of flavour, spiciness and saltiness are about as foundational as you can get. In this spirit, while recently reviewing our seasoning selections, the though occurred: why not combine these ever-so-crucial components into a single spice blend? After working directly with a trusted salt supplier, and finding just the right Chile flakes to mix with their expertly sourced Pink Salt, TJ's arrived at their Spicy Pink Salt with Crushed Red Pepper, a consummate, catch-all seasoning for all sorts of sweet and savoury applications. 

As a pure and simple expression of two essential flavour elements, there’s really no end to the uses for our Spicy Pink Salt with Crushed Red Pepper—truly, anything that could do with an additional kick of savoury heat will benefit from from a light sprinkling. That said, we’re particularly partial to adding it to roasted veggies, into soups, sauces, and stir fries, rubbing directly onto proteins prior to cooking, or atop freshly cooked pasta of all kinds. And for an excellent accessory to sweet and fruity cocktails, trying applying some Spicy Pink Salt with Crushed Red Pepper onto the rim, just before serving.
