Virgin Islands Spiced Sea Salt is a Caribbean salt blend made up of sea salt, nutmeg, clove, rosemary and thyme. This has a wonderfully rounded, sweet peppery flavour with herbal notes. It is a great finishing and cooking salt.
This seasoning reflects the culinary traditions of the Caribbean, which are influenced by African, European and indigenous Caribbean cultures. It’s often used to enhance the flavours of traditional Caribbean dishes and is particularly well-suited for grilling, marinating and seasoning meats, seafood and vegetables.
Speculation suggests that the British Navy are to thank for the availability of the all-purpose salt within the UK. This is because they previously made frequent stops at the Virgin Islands because they are a British territory. Nowadays the salt is used on the islands for curing meats and fish as well as seasoning dishes.
Now, this blend can be used as an all-purpose seasoning in a similar way Lemon Pepper and Wild Herb Cooking Sea Salt are used. Try rubbing into pork or lamb shoulder! You’ll find that many Caribbean recipes call for Spiced Salt in marinades and rubs. It adds depth and complexity to dishes, making them burst with Caribbean flavour.
