While kosher salt is best for seasoning meats before grilling (thanks to its ability to penetrate and tenderize), finishing salts are the star of the show once the grilling is done. Sprinkling a high-quality finishing salt onto your steak, chicken, or vegetables right before serving brings out their natural flavors and adds that coveted crunch and pop of flavor.<\/p>\n<p>For the <strong>perfect steak<\/strong>, try using a flaky salt like Maldon salt, a favorite among steakhouses for its clean flavor and crisp texture. If you\u2019re looking to elevate your grilled <strong>meats or vegetables<\/strong>, the subtle sweetness of smoked salt, such as our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grillspot.com\/quebec-maple-smoked-salt-kan001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Quebec Maple Smoked Salt<\/a>, adds a smoky depth that pairs beautifully with grilled dishes.<\/p>\n<p>Want to explore more flavor profiles? Specialty collections like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grillspot.com\/salt-collection-kan009\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Kanel Salt Collection<\/a> offer a range of infused salts perfect for grilling. For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fiery Sea Salt<\/strong> delivers a punch of heat that complements hearty dishes like steak, or simple dishes such as eggs or avocado toast.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cold Smoked Sea Salt<\/strong> pairs perfectly with grilled salmon or even as a finishing touch on roasted root vegetables.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Holy Grail Garlic Salt<\/strong> brings a bright, herbal flair to poultry or even grilled bread drizzled with olive oil.<\/li>\n<li>For a touch of indulgence, <strong>Summer Black Truffle Salt<\/strong> is ideal for subtle dishes like risotto or grilled mushrooms, where its earthy flavor can truly shine.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Use Finishing Salt for Grilling Grilling and finishing salts are a match made in culinary heaven.
