To our loyal customers and friends. It has finally happened! Within the space of two short weeks, our Chef Dylan has accepted a position on a super yacht and aims to spend a year or two travelling the world, learning new cuisines, and expanding his horizons. Consequently, Salt of the Earth Food Company will be taking a long term vacation but we hope to send some photos of what our chef is producing on the high seas, so stick with us!

We cannot thank you all enough for your amazing support over the last three years and for all your comments and likes. We hope that one day we will be back with even better menus for you all.

Until then, au revoir and all the best.🚤🌊

We're thrilled to announce that due to popular demand, we're now offering our Beetroot and Citrus-Cured Salmon available for purchase for a limited time! This delectable dish undergoes a meticulous 12-hour curing process, infusing it with a symphony of flavours from carefully crafted mixtures of salt, sugar, lemon zest, orange zest, lime zest, and raw mashed beetroot. The result is an extraordinary balance of citrusy zests and earthy beetroot that will tantalise your taste buds.

- 2 tablespoons creamed horseradish
- 1 tablespoon crème fraiche
- 2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 tablespoon chopped dill

Another culinary masterpiece from Salt of the Earth Food Company – our divine Beetroot and Citrus-Cured Salmon.
We're going to let you in on a little secret... Because why do ordinary when you can do extraordinary?

Undergoing a meticulous 12-hour curing process in a symphony of flavours, the secret lies in the carefully crafted mixture of salt, sugar, lemon zest, orange zest, lime zest, and raw mashed beetroot. This infusion not only imparts a vibrant hue to the salmon but also elevates its taste profile to another level. The citrusy zests and earthy beetroot creates a balance that is nothing short of extraordinary.

To complement this exquisite creation, we serve it with a simple yet bold horseradish sour cream. The creaminess of the sour cream meets the zing of horseradish, forming a perfect union that enhances the overall experience.

This dish was part of a seafood feast for international guests. Watch this space for the full feast coming soon.🍤🥗🐟
