Cooking with Lori’s Salt Caramel Syrup (Yum!)

Sweet, salty, scrumptious! That’s how I’d describe Lori’s Salt Caramel Syrup, a delicious and unique condiment that I recently sampled.

Living in New England, I’m used to enjoying many maple flavored foods. While I love that super-sweet taste, it only works for my sugar cravings, not my salt tooth. Lori’s Salt Caramel syrup combines the best of both world’s into a sweet and salty treat.

100% handcrafted in Oregon by Chef Lori, only the finest ingredients are used in its production: mineral water, Celtic sea salt, Tahitian vanilla, caramelized cane sugar, and a hint of maple. It’s all natural, shelf stable, and only 60 calories per serving (a little goes a long way).

Prior to receiving this generously-sized bottle, I had only tried salted caramel in coffee drinks. The label says it’s a great alternative for maple syrup and can be used for breakfast foods (pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, granola) or as a dessert topping.

All of those sound good, but the options don’t have to stop there. I think it would be awesome mixed into sweet potatoes, homemade Chex mix, and homemade popcorn. For a savory option, I immediately thought of salmon.

Since I had some fish on hand, I decided to try it out. I mixed an equal part of the salt caramel syrup and soy sauce together, then marinated overnight. The following day, I baked it at 350 for 25 minutes on a cedar plank in the oven.

Oh my goodness, was it ever tasty! I only made one filet, thinking that it wouldn’t be kid-friendly, but even the littles wanted a bite. I would definitely cook this again, in a larger quantity.

If you’re looking for a gourmet tasting sweet, Lori’s Salt Caramel Syrup should on the top of your list.
