The rich, earthy notes of truffles are perfectly balanced with the salt, creating a harmonious blend that enhances the taste of any dish it graces.

A little goes a long way, making it a cost-effective option without compromising on taste.

I use this in soups especially to add a wonderful smokey flavor.

I love smoked seasalt especially on fish. It was a little pricey considering that I just found out you can get the same brand/weight at HEB in Texas for a couple bucks and other brands smoked differently from other sources (both cheap and expensive).That being said, I do like the flavor of this particular salt and it did arrive in a timely manner.

Flavor is good, you can taste the truffle. The price seemed competitive, at least on Amazon marketplace. Size is much smaller than the picture makes it appear in my opinion.

Upon receiving and opening my 5oz bag of Italian Black Truffle Salt, I was appalled by the aroma. I was ready to contact customer service to request a refund (as refunds are not typically granted for food items purchased on Amazon) but decided to go ahead and read more of the critical reviews of this particular product. This turned out to be game changer. There were a number of consumers who mentioned that the aroma was off-putting… but many mentioned that it faded after days or weeks. I took that into consideration and decided to go ahead and try it a few hours after I opened the bag. Hours later, I tried it on fish and just didn’t care for the taste – it actually reminded me of potassium chloride salt substitute.The following morning, I tried it again (on fish). It wasn’t as offensive, but I still didn’t care for it. But, having read a number of the critical reviews, I was rather impressed with the level of customer support follow-through that Rebecca exhibits. I work as a QA Manager at food manufacturing company and can recognize a sincere response. While some of her replies are canned – guess what, so are those related reviews to which she uses that response. Rebecca reads all reviews and replies to them accordingly. If it’s a taste thing, you cannot argue with that, so that’s when you get the canned response (which in my opinion is the best thing a food company can offer, as we all have different taste preferences). If it’s a shipping issue, she addresses it. If it’s an authenticity issue, she reassures you with their certified lab testing. Outside of the excellent reviews where folks already love the product, Rebecca, in my opinion, is the key that keeps the Amazon consumers loyal to this product.So, I tried it again at lunch… which I was hesitant to do because I could smell the unpleasant (only somewhat now) smell from the snack drawer at my desk. Once I opened it up to ask my boss what he thought, I took a sniff and it actually smelled remarkably better! Still not 100%, but it started to smell good. I sprinkled it on my fish and vegetables and enjoyed it!One caveat: Don’t use too much too soon. Within the first 24ish hours, I got little flavor, lots of unpleasant aroma. 36 to 48 hours later… I used a little too much salt (thinking I needed more to get the truffle flavor, based on my experience from the previous 24ish hours). It may take a little time to “soak in” but definitely allow for that time. It’s worth it. I’m going to try a lighter sprinkle tomorrow and let it soak in, marinate before I attempt eating.All in all, I’m not sure if I’ll buy this product again. But then, I’ve only had this salt for 48 hours, and the aroma and flavor have morphed dramatically in that short amount of time. That being said, I’m definitely going to peruse the shop and hopefully order from San Francisco Salt Company again because of the phenomenal customer support and service by Rebecca.

I think this is the fifth time I’ve purchased it and I’ve given it to several friends as gifts. It just adds a great flavor to anything to buttered noodles, eggs, to popcorn.

We love this salt for many things including "elevating" the butter for baked potatoes. But our favorite use is to blend this 50/50 with sea salt and toss in buttered popcorn. This is great stuff and the 5 oz. pouch lasts a surprisingly long time. Enjoy!

I have reordered this a number of times. Delicious.

I love the flavor on just about everything. I don't bake with it, but beef, chicken, some fish, pork, even eggs, and potatoes are yummy.

I like the flavor of the SF Truffle Salt. Great on popcorn, just sprinkle and shake.The crystals are small so easy to blend with foods.Crazy expensive but should last a long time 95 oz. bag)

So good on steak & popcorn!

Super tasty on salads, eggs, meats etc. I don’t normally like truffle flavours but this salt gives new dimension to any food you put on!

Love this salt
