What is it really all about and how does it work? Three simple steps to ultimate enjoyment!
What are salt blocks particularly well-suited for when grilling?
Our grillart salt block gives your grilled food that certain something extra. The high-quality salt block from the Himalayan region offers a delightful salt aroma. Meat and fish alike remain incomparably tender and juicy.
An absolute highlight of the salt blocks is also that they retain heat so well that you can easily place them on the table to finish cooking the food directly in front of your guests. (Please only use with an appropriate heat-resistant coaster or, ideally, a candle to keep the salt block warm even longer).
Salt block for grilling, here is how it’s guaranteed to work!
Step 1: Ignite your grill (whether charcoal or gas). Place your grillart salt block in the indirect heat area of your grill to heat the stone slowly. You can also use the salt block in your oven. To do this, place the salt block in a cold oven and let it heat up to 100°C for approx. 15 minutes.
Step 2: Only once the stone is really hot can it be used on the grill over direct heat (above glowing coals or flames). In the oven, heat up to 200-250°C. Tip: Simply drop a drop of water onto the stone; if it evaporates immediately, you are ready to start.
Step 3: Fish, meat, vegetables, or other treats can now be placed on the well-preheated stone. The salt block immediately gives your food a fine salty note, delicious roasted aromas, and keeps it super juicy.
The key is to heat the salt block slowly. If it heats up too quickly, there is a risk that the stone will crack. So, it is better to take it easy and give the salt block the time it needs for grilling 😊
Cleaning and storage of a salt block
Cleaning the salt block after grilling is child's play. Let the stone cool down. Coarse encrustations on the salt block can simply be removed with a scraper. If you want to remove even more stubborn dirt, you are welcome to clean the stone with a slightly damp cloth afterward. However, keep in mind that the less moisture that comes into contact with the salt block, the better. The salt block is not very susceptible to bacteria, as salt itself kills germs.
You should store the salt block in a dry place and, ideally, in a dark location.
