Viking Fry Salt – The Ultimate Finishing Salt With Lucuma & Turmeric
Viking Fry Salt is a herbaceous, smoked finishing salt built for flavor-focused cooking. It starts with fine sea salt and cold-smoked Danish sea salt, delivering clean salinity with a deep, beechwood-smoked profile.
The seasoning layers umami-rich garlic and onion with the savory intensity of smoked paprika, balanced by fresh dill and the sharp green lift of lovage. Phú Quốc white pepper adds fermented heat, while turmeric and lucuma (an antioxidant-rich superfruit from Peru) bring subtle golden sweetness and functional benefits. Arrowroot keeps the texture dry and sprinkle-ready, without clumping.

Persian Blue Salt – Rare salt from the Iranian mountains, naturally blue due to mineral deposits. Delivers a clean, crisp, slightly sweet mineral taste with a stunning visual edge.
Danish Smoked Sea Salt – Cold-smoked over beechwood for more than 160 hours in Denmark. Deep, smooth smokiness that lingers without overpowering.
Garlic Powder – European-grown garlic, dried slowly and ground fine. Adds rich, savory depth and true umami backbone.
Onion Powder – Ground from European onions for sweet, mellow aromatic balance that lifts the heavier spices.
Smoked Paprika – Spanish oak-smoked paprika, sweet, rich, and vivid. Adds visual firepower and smoky sweetness.
Dried Dill Weed – Dried young dill leaves, bringing a bright, grassy, slightly anise-like top note that keeps the blend lively.
Dried Lovage Leaf – Strong celery-herb flavor, earthy and bold, grounding the blend with a green sharpness.
Phú Quốc White Pepper – Fermented white pepper from Vietnam’s Phú Quốc Island, bringing a fruity, slightly funky heat with a smooth, rich finish.
Turmeric Powder – Indian turmeric known for high curcumin content. Gives golden color, earthy warmth, and antioxidant strength.
Lucuma Powder – Sun-dried Peruvian lucuma, naturally sweet and rich in antioxidants. Provides subtle caramel notes without added sugars.
Arrowroot Powder – A clean, neutral starch made from tropical arrowroot plants, preventing clumping and keeping the salt blend sprinkle-ready.
This blend is vegan, paleo, keto, gluten-free, soy-free, and dairy-free, made entirely from premium, filler-free ingredients. Please note: while all ingredients are naturally allergen-free, this blend is produced in a facility that also handles nuts, sesame, and mustard.
Superfood : Lucuma
The Umami Powerhouse
Kombu is a culinary cheat code—a natural umami booster so powerful that Japanese chefs use it to create dashi, the foundation of their cuisine. This seaweed superfood contains natural glutamates, the very compounds that make dishes taste richer, deeper, and more savory. It doesn’t just add flavor—it enhances the flavors already present, making everything crisper, bolder, and more addictive.
A Natural Crisp Enhancer
Want to know why kombu belongs in the ultimate fry seasoning? Because it contains alginates, natural compounds that help fried foods retain their crunch while absorbing just the right amount of salt and seasoning. That means fries that stay crispy longer, with a perfect balance of briny salt and rich umami.
Viking-Approved Nutritional Goldmine
Ancient Nordic cultures harvested seaweed for its strength-giving minerals, and science now backs their wisdom. Kombu is:
✅ A thyroid-supporting powerhouse thanks to its high iodine content.
✅ Rich in calcium, magnesium, and iron, supporting bone health, muscle function, and endurance.
✅ Loaded with fucoidan, a compound shown to have immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory benefits.
✅ A prebiotic that feeds gut-friendly bacteria, improving digestion and nutrient absorption.
The Hidden Flavor Enhancer for Chefs
Kombu is a secret weapon in high-end kitchens. It’s not just for broths—savvy chefs use it to:
🔥 Dry-age meats for richer depth.
🔥 Infuse salts and seasonings with complex umami.
🔥 Balance and round out flavors in everything from soups to fried foods.
When infused into Viking Fry Salt, kombu transforms simple fries, roasted roots, and crispy indulgences into gourmet-level creations. It’s not just an ingredient—it’s a tool for mastering flavor.
Unlock the power of the sea. Elevate your crunch. Feast like a Viking.
