The Flavor Profile: Known in Brazil as the "Bouillon Plant," Cordia verbenacea offers a deep, savory umami flavor reminiscent of slow-simmered stock and wild coastal herbs. This finishing salt combines Baja Gold sun-dried mineral salt with the aromatic, homegrown Cordia verbenacea leaves, creating a seasoning that is both primitive and sophisticated.
Nutritional Highlight: Beyond its flavor, this salt acts as a functional seasoning. It is naturally rich in Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium, and infused with Alpha-humulene, the plant’s signature terpene known for its potent natural anti-inflammatory benefits.
Culinary Uses:
• The Final Touch: Sprinkle over roasted root vegetables to heighten their natural sweetness with a savory edge.
• Plant-Based Umami: Use it to add a "meaty" depth to vegetable broths, bean stews, or risotto.
• Texture & Aroma: The fine, dark green flecks provide a beautiful visual contrast on pale foods like poached eggs or fresh sourdough with olive oil.
