YUZU
HOT SALT MADE WITH: SEA SALT • GHOST • SCORPION • REAPER • YUZU • SHIITAKE • RICE VINEGAR • TURMERIC
Yuzu Hot Salt is a unique blend of Pacific Sea Salt, spicy peppers, and savory umami. We've combined the fiery kick of Ghost, Scorpion, and Reaper peppers with the bright, tart notes of yuzu and rice wine vinegar. The result is a bold, engaging, and flavorful seasoning with a rich umami finish from shiitake and a hint of turmeric. It’s spicy, refreshing, and unlike anything you've ever tasted.
Expect savory heat, rich umami, and a crisp, tart finish.
MADE IN SMALL BATCHES • FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE
The Story Behind the Salt
Our friend Dave Sands—host of the Food Origins podcast—inspired this delicious blend. Dave brings the world of food to life, exploring the stories and traditions behind the people who nourish us. He's a phenomenal chef and food photographer who bridges the gap between culinary nuance and everyday approachability.
Before dedicating himself to food, Dave had a unique career. As a law enforcement officer in the San Francisco Bay Area, he worked with inner-city gang crime. After seeing the cycle of recidivism, he sought to create a new path for the young men he regularly arrested. With his partner, he developed a program that supplemented enforcement with mentorship and family support, helping young people make positive changes in their lives. After a career-ending injury, Dave left law enforcement to pursue his passion for food and community.
We became friends with Dave after falling in love with the food photos and stories he shares. We are proud sponsors of his show and encourage you to check out his work. You can find him on the Food Origins podcast, YouTube channel, and social media at @food.origins_. You'll enjoy his work as much as we do.
Thank you!

YUZU Includes:
- Laser Etched YUZU Push Grinder filled with YUZU Hot Salt
- YUZU Hot Salt 25g Refill Pouch
- YUZU Hot Salt, ID card and foam lined box with magnetic closure
- Street cred with foodies, L.E.O. and BJJ blackbelts that know.
- Flavor satisfaction
The Firecracker Farm Pusher is a refillable laser-etched, stainless steel, push grinder. Solid in hand, convenient and incredibly satisfying to use. One push delivers a burst of savory heat whenever you need one with full precision and control
Push Grinder Contains 17g (0.6oz) of Hot Salt.
How many presses? About 515. Another 750+ in the refill pouch to keep you satisfied for quite a while.
The coarse sea salts we use are natural unprocessed sea-salts made by solar evaporation of brine and are not iodized. They are refined by washing with clean saturated salt brine to remove surface impurities, drained of excess moisture, dried, and screened to size.
The Pusher is a spring loaded, thumb operated rasp style grinder. Pressing down on the depressor forces a rough banded steel rasp down through the opening at the bottom of the grinder and crushes the salt crystals as each band passes the salt blocking the opening. A fast press pulverizes the salt more thoroughly and creates a slightly finer grind. A slow press allows larger grains of Hot Salt to pass.
Each press of the pusher delivers 33mg of Hot Salt on average. A full pusher contains approximately 515 presses. That's a lot of heat! When compared to the number of uses from a typical bottle of specialty hot sauce (maybe 10)you can see how this will last. When you run out, we sell refill pouches.
ELEVATE FLAVOR WITH HEAT
Our Three Kings Hot Salt enhances flavors and delights the palette with mouthwatering, savory heat that builds without overpowering. Hot salt will elevate your recipes, and enjoyment to new highs. It's #ffaddictive.
- Incredible flavor first and heat second. The citrus notes are bright, fresh, and versatile.
- I put it on everything. From pizza to Mexican food it goes great on it all.
- Best salt on the market can't believe the most awesome taste of the salt.
Firecracker Farms has officially entered the "take my money and stop asking questions" phase of our relationship! Well, my third Firecracker Farms installment has arrived, and at this point I'm beginning to suspect that "just one more salt" is a trap.
This round I picked up Lambeau Lemon Drop and Yuzu, continuing my quest to slowly work my way toward the salts that require a liability waiver and a signed note from my next of kin.
Both salts deliver exactly what I've come to expect from Firecracker Farms: incredible flavor first and heat second. The citrus notes are bright, fresh, and versatile enough to work on just about everything I've thrown them on so far. They add the kind of flavor that makes you stop mid-bite and immediately start looking for other foods to sprinkle them on.
The shipping and communication continue to be outstanding. Every order arrives quickly, and the updates are so thorough that I feel more informed about my salt's travel plans than some family members' vacation itineraries.
Three Kings got me hooked. Hotter Stuff convinced me to keep climbing the heat ladder. Now Lambeau Lemon Drop and Yuzu have proven that Firecracker Farms isn't just about heat, it's about building flavors that make me reach for the push grinder over and over again.
At this point, I'm not sure whether I'm a customer or just funding a very specific addiction.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It was hard at first to justify spending $100 on seasoning. But I don't have any regrets here. The push grinder is convenient to slip in your pocket and take to lunch with you. And while my friends make fun of me for carrying my seasoning around with me, they nevertheless will always ask me for some on their meals because they cannot deny how much it enhances their food.
For light weight like me is the correct amount of heat.
At first it was spicy but got used it, Its very unique & tasting that I startted mixing it with lemon/lime juice to eat it. Its on the expensive side but honestly worth it
Love this! Will definitely buy again!
Bought this after trying the "Hotter Stuff", and im blown away. I like it way more than i expected. Purchased to go on more asian style dishes, but now i put it on everything. From pizza to Mexican food it goes great on it all. Would recommend to everyone and will be making another Yuzu purchase when this is gone.
Love this version of salt. Great on everything, a unique blend that will have you coming back!
Great in taste but very expensive for flavored salt! The amount received was so small, was expecting a lot more for the price!
Love it!
Oh boy, what do I say? Best salt on the market can’t believe the most awesome taste of the salt.
Customer service is awesome as well ordering was easy quick get you some firecracker farm
For me, there was very little flavor overall, and there was no heat at all - I will not be buying again
I love all of your salts. Bought several different heat levels.
I bought the fire salt (ghost pepper) it is the best we've used, prompt delivery, easy ordering and GREAT product...keep up the good work~
Heard advertisements on the Cleared Hot Podcast and gave it a shot. I cook a few times a week and always enjoy adding different flavor components to my meals. This is a Fantastic product for cooking enthusiasts. The quality of the 'shaker' is excellent and so are the ingredients. Keep up the great work.
Stumbled across this site quite by accident looking for a unique thank you gift. Ordered two sets on a whim and so glad I did. The pushers/salts were a big hit and I’ll be coming back for more in the future. Don’t pass up the opportunity to make yourself and others happy with the perfect gift.
I have one a travel with and one stays home I put the salt on everything >>> Great product and excellent quality...
Hey Michael, Thank you! I'm excited that you take it with you! Watch out for TSA, I've had reports of push grinders going missing from suitcases! - Alex
Whats not to like about a seasoning thats salty and has a nice kick to it and its a Florida product
Great company. The solts are awesome. All of them. Especially on devil eggs
Originally ordered the original and extra hot. Then went back for the new flavor.
I really enjoy the flavor of the spice. Your blend of peppers makes the heat flavorful. I've used hot pepper before, but your blends create flavors that I enjoy so much more.
And customer service with questions answered is amazing. Strong respect for how you support your customers.
Love the little grinder and zesty salts !!
This salt is legit awesome! Not only does it add heat, it brings out flavors in your food. And the different flavors of salt each add something distinct. For anyone looking at the cost, do not look at this as a salt replacement. This stuff is strong! It only takes a little bit to add the flavor and spice. You only need to small amount in addition to normal salt. So it lasts a lot longer than you think!
As always it was great as expected.
Thanks guys
