Wild Garlic Salt: Vegan, gluten free, sugar free
Wild Garlic is an excellent immunostimulant with many healing properties. Preserved in sea salt, it makes a great seasoning for fresh vegetables or simple pasta dishes and can be used in cooking for a touch of extra flavour.
Hejgro Wild Garlic Salt is a small-batch seasoning made with just two ingredients: sea salt and fresh foraged wild garlic. Made in Somerset using locally foraged wild garlic, it brings the distinctive fresh, savoury flavour of spring wild garlic to your cooking throughout the year.
With 34% wild garlic and 66% sea salt, our Wild Garlic Salt has a high proportion of foraged wild garlic and contains no unnecessary additional ingredients.
How It Tastes
Wild garlic, also known as ramsons or Allium ursinum, has a distinctive lighter flavour when compared to traditional bulb garlic, combining a garlicky punch with a fresh, leafy note similar to that of a spring onion.
Combining it with sea salt creates an aromatic savoury seasoning that can be used both during cooking and as a finishing salt. A small amount adds a gentle garlicky depth without overwhelming the other flavours in your food.
If you enjoy using garlic in cooking but want something a little different from ordinary garlic salt or garlic powder, with a unique herbaceous taste made in small batches with care and consideration, try out our Wild Garlic Salt today.
What Makes It Special
Hejgro's Wild Garlic Salt is made in small batches using freshly foraged wild garlic, gathered during its short spring season. When purchased in a store, this product is normally just a combination of herbalised garlic and salt; instead we blend the fresh leaves directly with sea salt so their natural juices, colour and flavour are absorbed throughout the mixture. It is then carefully dehydrated to preserve the distinctive fresh, savoury character of the wild garlic.
We keep the process simple and traditional, using carefully gathered wild ingredients with no unnecessary additives or artificial flavourings. Working with seasonal, locally foraged produce with a low-intervention approach that reflects our focus on more responsible, environmentally conscious food production.
Foraged Wild Garlic from Somerset
Wild garlic is one of Britain's most recognisable springtime wild foods, appearing in woodland and shady areas during the spring. Its fresh leaves have been used in cooking for generations and are particularly popular in pestos, sauces, soups and seasonings.
At Hejgro, fresh wild garlic is locally foraged and transformed into products that allow its distinctive seasonal flavour to be enjoyed for much longer than the short wild garlic season.
Our Wild Garlic Salt is produced in small batches using a simple combination of freshly foraged wild garlic and sea salt with no unnecessary additional ingredients.
