Frequently Asked Questions

The best store-bought flake salt depends on the texture, crystal size, and flavor you prefer. Look for delicate flakes that are easy to pinch and distribute over food. Traditional sea salt flakes provide clean salty flavor, while smoked or flavored varieties can add another dimension to the finished dish.
Flake salt is most commonly used as a finishing salt on cooked food. Sprinkle it over steak, brisket, burgers, seafood, vegetables, potatoes, eggs, and other dishes immediately before serving to add a final burst of saltiness and texture.
The primary difference is the shape and texture of the crystals. Flake salt consists of thin, lightweight crystals, while table salt generally has much smaller, denser grains. Because crystal sizes and densities differ, the same volume of flake salt and table salt may not provide the same amount of saltiness.
Flake salt is commonly used as a finishing salt, but the terms aren't exactly the same. Finishing salt describes how a salt is used, while flake salt describes its crystal structure. Many flake salts make excellent finishing salts because their delicate crystals provide noticeable texture on finished food.
Yes. Steak is one of the best uses for flake salt. A light sprinkle over sliced ribeye, New York strip, filet mignon, sirloin, or other steaks can enhance the beef flavor while adding small bursts of salt and a delicate crunch.
Yes. Flake salt can be sprinkled lightly over sliced brisket immediately before serving, especially when individual slices need a little extra seasoning. Use it sparingly so the finishing salt complements the brisket, smoke, and bark rather than overpowering them.
You can cook with flake salt, but its delicate texture is often best appreciated when it's added near the end of cooking or immediately before serving. If the flakes completely dissolve during a long cook, you lose much of the texture that makes flake salt distinctive.
Start with a small pinch distributed evenly across the finished food. Because the flakes remain noticeable on the surface, you generally don't need a heavy coating. You can always add more if needed, but it's much harder to correct food that has been over-salted.
