Merkén is the Mapuche seasoning of dried, smoked and ground ají cacho de cabra chile, sometimes with toasted coriander seed and salt, made in the Maule and La Araucanía regions of Chile.

Spanish smoked paprika from Capsicum peppers dried over oak or holm-oak smoke in a dryer called a secadero, then ground. Protected by a designation of origin in La Vera.

Flaky or coarse sea salt takes on hickory smoke in a pellet grill. A shallow tray lets the smoke reach the crystals before they cool for airtight storage.
