Australian-grown Old Man Saltbush (Atriplex nummularia). A clean, savoury native seasoning rich in minerals. Perfect for everyday cooking and low-salt diets.

Botanical: Atriplex nummularia

Old Man Saltbush is one of Australia’s oldest traditional food plants — a hardy desert shrub with soft, savoury leaves that have been used for thousands of years. Naturally rich in minerals and with a clean, lightly salty flavour, Saltbush delivers an effortless way to season dishes without relying on refined salt.

Our Saltbush is Australian grown under chemical-free, organic-leaning practices, harvested at peak flavour, and gently milled into a coarse, aromatic leaf that’s ready to sprinkle, rub, bake, or blend. It offers a mellow, savoury depth that works across both contemporary and traditional cooking.
