Falksalt

Sprinkle it, finish with it, plate with it.

Falksalt has been perfecting sea salt from a small harbourside shop in Gothenburg, Sweden, since the years after Napoleon fell, when the business passed into the hands of Herman Falk and, later, the Hansson family — still running it today, four generations on.

In 1928 the Hanssons launched Falk's Salt, Sweden's first table salt, and built their name on a signature pyramid-shaped flake — a delicate crystal that crushes between your fingers for an even, clean finish rather than a harsh crunch. Built for finishing, not cooking-in: a reverse-seared steak, roast spuds, grilled seafood or chargrilled veg, right at the pass.

The Rub Hub range covers four personalities: Black, cut with 5% activated charcoal for a striking finish on meat and seafood; Smoke, golden-brown flakes with a genuine smoked aroma for steaks and sauces; Wild Mushroom, blended with crushed porcini for deep umami on roast spuds and pasta; and Wild Garlic, infused with wild garlic leaves for a fragrant hit on salads and steaks.

Nearly a century of salt-trading heritage sits behind every tin — the label still reads "Passion for salt since 1928" — and that pyramid shape isn't just for show, it's what gives Falksalt its lighter, crunchier bite.

Four generations, one Gothenburg address, and a finishing salt that looks as good on the plate as it tastes. Sprinkle it, finish with it, plate with it.

Falksalt for steak and beef

These are finishing salts, so they go on at the end. Rest the steak, slice it, then crumble a few flakes over the top. Hickory Smoke gives a gently smoked finish, Wild Garlic adds a fragrant garlic hit, and Wild Mushroom brings earthy porcini. Black is made to work as both a cooking and finishing salt. See more in our steak range and salts.

Falksalt for veg, spuds and seafood

Wild Mushroom suits roast potatoes and pasta. Wild Garlic suits salads and grilled veg. Hickory Smoke is good stirred into sauces or over vegetables. Black flakes on a white plate make meat and seafood look sharp, and the bucket means the stash won't run dry. Browse veggie and seafood seasonings for more.
