Lower Sodium – But Why? For thousands of years, salt has been a natural flavor enhancer of our foods. Due to a higher mineral content of sea salt, it contains 30% less sodium than traditional table salt. More important than the health benefits we gain from the higher concentration of minerals, they really offer distinctive flavors unique to sea salt.
Woody’s Gourmet sea salt blends contain even less sodium than regular gourmet sea salt – as much as 30% less! Why? Because Woody’s Gourmet includes as much as 30% fresh herb content in our blends. We are talking about fresh herbs, like rosemary, sage, thyme, basil, lemongrass & other ingredients like black truffles, smoked bacon, chipotle peppers & garlic. So for each teaspoon of Woody’s Gourmet, because we’ve added so many fresh ingredients, there is less room on that teaspoon for sodium.
The result is much more than the aromatic scent and complex flavor profile you enjoy. You are also consuming less sodium per serving, so you can rest assured that the great taste is also healthier than the alternative salt products. Give it a try and tell us what you think!
Building upon our other great fresh herb sea salt blends, Woody's Gourmet introduces a clever combination of fresh basil and lemongrass. In a perfectly balanced presentation of juxtaposed flavor profiles, the basil and lemongrass go hand in hand with their savory fresh garlic counterpart. The fresh herbs make for an aromatic nose that one would not anticipate from an herb sea salt. Available in 3.5 oz jars.
If committing to a couple specific bottles is too tough, we have the perfect solution for you! We have recently made available for sale a sampler set of all eight blends in re-sealable pouches that lets you try each of our blends in a couple dishes to see which ones you can't live without - including our wildly popular Black Truffle & fresh Thyme blend. Each pouch is approximately 1/4 to 1/2 oz and provides just the right amount of sea salt for several meals per blend. This also makes for a great gift set too!
