5 Easy Ways to Use Caravel Gourmet’s 5 Pepper Sea Salt in Recipes

This delicious, gourmet pepper and salt blend enhances everything it touches!

5 Pepper Chicken. You can salt a chicken two ways, depending on how much time you have. If you’re going to cook in the next hour or two (up to 6 hours), make a brine - add ¼ cup Caravel Gourmet 5 Pepper Sea Salt for every 1 cup hot water (dissolve the salt) and 1 cup ice water. Take the pieces of chicken you’re going to cook, and add them to the brine. If you’re going to cook 6 hours or more away, then coat the pieces in a healthy sprinkle of Caravel Gourmet 5 Pepper sea salt, wrap them back up, and put them in the fridge.

Asparagus with 5 Pepper & Butter. Prep the asparagus by trimming off the thick ends and rinsing in cold water. In an iron skillet (or the heaviest one you have with a lid), heat the butter till it starts to bubble, then add the asparagus, and shake the pan to coat it in the butter. Cover the pan and cook on medium for 3 minutes, checking to make sure it’s not burning. Uncover and cook a few more minutes until the asparagus is bright green, then add Caravel Gourmet 5 Pepper Sea Salt to taste.
5 Pepper Steak. Do you know when to salt your steak? If you’re cooking tomorrow, sprinkle Caravel Gourmet 5 Pepper Sea Salt tonight - letting the salt sit on the steak longer (up to overnight) will make the steak even better. Don’t have time? Then salt it right before you cook it (like, within 3 minutes).


5 Pepper Roasted Potatoes. After you’ve cut your potatoes into 1” cubes, toss them in oil and sprinkle with Caravel Gourmet’s 5 Pepper Sea Salt before roasting them at 350F for 45 minutes.

Grilled 5 Pepper Onions. Breaking out the grill? Make this easy side dish - grab a few large onions, slice them into 1” discs, brush on some olive oil and sprinkle them with Caravel Gourmet 5 Pepper Sea Salt before letting them slow cook on a cooler part of the grill until they’ve caramelized. Be sure to turn them at least once.

 Pepper Sea Salt is a gourmet blend of solar-evaporated sea salt and five different gourmet peppers: telicherry, pink peppercorns, green peppercorns, white peppercorns, and allspice.
