Serrano Chili Salt that offers a bit of pain, and a Load of Pleasure
Serrano Chili Salt 3 ounces of heaven for the legitimate heat enthusiasts out there. Unless you are a Glutton for punishment, this bottle will last you a LONG time! WE USE MORE THAN 3X the amount of pure ground Serrano, in our Serrano Chili Salt – better value and more heat (Serrano Chilis have a Scoville unit rating of about 20,000 units)!
A perfect mix of intense, clean heat with a minimal afterburn effect. The distinctive flavor of serrano comes out as a finishing salt that can and should be used on tacos, steaks, burgers, fish, chicken, pork, salads… Should we continue? It basically works on anything if you like a real, tangible heat, without being uncomfortably hot. A few grains of this on a bite of food will put you into hot pepper mouth bliss. A few shakes on a burger takes you from a good burger to an intensely hot, intensely rewarding experience. Used to make salsas, this offers the right kick, while keeping the savory flavor in check.
This 3 ounce sized container of Serrano Chili Salt contains an equivalent of about 45-55 serrano chilis, graded sea salt and a tiny hint of citric acid. The resulting flavor is deeply intense, but clean and does not last more than a minute or so on the palate, generally. A sprinkle on a burger will take it to the next level, on a steak you’ll be salivating before you even take your first bite. But it’s also an all purpose finishing salt for BBQ served to lovers of flavor and spice, or as a taco topping in moderation to make your guests feel your passion. A Serrano Chili is a very consistent palette for heat – they are generally 20k Scoville’s; and are more than 2X hotter than most Jalapeños, with a much more consistent heat range.
In the picture below you can see 3-4 shakes on 2 cut Roma tomatoes, which is enough to add to a large salad for 1, or a typical salad for 2, and feel the heat without being too uncomfortable while eating it. Just a sprinkling of grains can elevate a boring salad or piece of meat to something memorable. Of course if you enjoy a bit more heat, another sprinkle or two takes you to flavorland. This spice blend if PERFECT for prepackaged salads!
You could also use this serrano chili salt blend mixed with plain sea salt, kosher salt or other graded salts, in a 1:1 ratio, to lessen the sting, if you wanted to add a savory, spicy element to chocolates, pastries or French toast. Try it on eggs too – it’s spectacular!
The distinctive flavor of the Serrano is OBVIOUS in this Serrano Chili Salt
The flavor profile of serrano offers significant potential as a spice blend and it’s surprising this flavor isn’t more common, because it’s one of the best baseline combinations on the planet.
The recognizable, distinctive flavor of the serrano chili has elements of bright, green flavor, a slightly vegetal and slightly earthy undertone, with a sharp, clean break in the intensity, and a fresh crisp mouthfeel that hints at black peppercorn and acidity in the very slightest way.
This Serrano Chili Salt is not a spice mix that is for the faint of heart – yes, absolutely a normal person can handle the heat, and will love the flavor, but it will be hot enough to the mainstream consumer, that it may not be as enjoyable for those who do not enjoy heat. On a burger, a salad or a taco it will be less noticeable in the form of a shake or two from the bottle, but it will be noticeable. If you like heat, this is the one you’ll be coming back to again and again. If you don’t like too much heat, you can dial it back by using a smaller amount, and still get one of the best pure baseline flavors of any chili, anywhere. Bear in Mind: a few sprinkles in a complex, boldly flavored dish may not have a large impact on the felt heat for the person eating the food, but there will be a flavor boost. This makes the serrano chili salt a versatile and fun spice blend.
The fresh, green, bright flavor of the Serrano Chili is so memorable and distinctive, and for those who understand that flavor profile, this is the BUSINESS!
This blend can also be purchased in larger quantities at a discount. We custom blend this finishing salt/spice blend to ensure full coating of the serrano chili onto each grain of salt, and add citric acid in very small quantities to help elevate the slightly acidic base note of the serrano chili itself.
Shipping is included in the price.
