Salts

Salt is the one seasoning every rub, sauce and shaker leans on, but on RubHub it comes in three real forms: flaked finishing salts scattered on at the very end, chicken salt built for the takeaway-shop flavour, and salt-pepper-garlic (SPG) blends used as an all-rounder through the whole cook, not just a plain shaker dressed up different ways.

Use a finishing salt on a rested steak, hot chips or roast chicken so the crunch survives to the plate. Use chicken salt on fries, popcorn and eggs the way an Aussie takeaway shop would. Use an SPG blend earlier, straight onto beef, brisket or seafood, since it seasons through the cook rather than finishing it.

Start with Falksalt's Sea Salt Flakes Hickory Smoke, a Swedish flaked finishing salt, Fancy Hanks' Chicken Salt Seasoning for the classic takeaway flavour, Coast N Smoke's Surf Paddle Grill SPG, or Hardcore Carnivore's Texas Jalapeno Salt for real heat.

The range genuinely spans four countries in one category - Falksalt is Swedish, Hardcore Carnivore is US-imported, Four Saucemen's Burger Salt is New Zealand-made, and Fancy Hanks' Chicken Salt Seasoning is Australian-made. Several across the range are gluten free too. Salt done properly, whichever form it takes.
