When the seasons change in Alaska, they waste little time. September gave us calm seas and golden light on the mountains, a gift of summer’s finale. October arrived like a freight train with heavy, sideways rain, snow on the mountaintops, and quickly disappearing daylight.

That means we finally have time for slow-cooked fall recipes and the mountain of to-dos we labeled “October” when the sunlight was too inspiring to slow down.

So, in honor of soup season, wet rain jackets, and finally getting around to our October lists, all hot sauces are on sale. The timing couldn’t be better as we just restocked our limited edition flavors: Black Garlic, Barrel Aged, and Extra Spicy Bullwhip. Hopefully this helps you check “stock up on hot sauce” off your October to-do list.

These hot sauces warm us through the cold, bone-chilling drizzle, and help us embrace slowing down, cooking good food, and spending time with people we love.

Thanks for being here. We hope you’re settling into fall wherever you are.

Thank you for helping us contribute 💙

Barnacle Foods is rooted on the lands and waters of the Aak’w Kwáan and neighboring Taku Kwáan Tlingit Peoples.

Each year, we pause on Indigenous Peoples’ Day to give thanks to the original stewards of this coastline. This year we’re proud to support Haa Yoo X̲’atángi Kúdi, a language revitalization program teaching only using the Lingít language.

We are an Alaska seaweed company. Our mission from day one has been to share the flavors of Alaska with people near and far while bringing opportunities and benefits to the coast we love. Thank you for being here and keeping us going!

Hello to all the new faces out there! Please allow us to reintroduce ourselves. We are Barnacle Foods, a small, mission driven food company held fast to the coast of Southeast Alaska.

We believe the food system can be better. Good for you, good for the planet, and let’s not forget about our taste buds either. We use kelp to make everyday foods taste better, include more nutrients, and uplift coastal communities. What could be cooler than that? We do that by using kelp as the first ingredient in everyday foods. Everything from hot sauces, pickles, salsas, chocolate bars and more.

Want to know more? Follow along for more about our surprising story going from home kitchen to retail shelves across the country. Thanks for checking us out and we hope you’ll give Alaska kelp a taste.

Kelp = flavor.

Kelp is a pillar of dashi, that remarkably savory yet clean and light broth that forms the foundation of many Japanese traditional dishes.

Kelp is naturally rich in glutamic acid and amino acids, which are building blocks of umami, “the fifth taste”.

The combination of bonito flakes in traditional dashi create multiplying effects of flavor enhancement that make remarkably simple broths taste rich and satisfying.

All to say…. Kelp is magic.

Kelp salts are here! Make everyday cooking easy with a generous sprinkle of Gomasio and Kelp Flake Salts.

We teamed up with our friends Mark Bitterman to bring you these two umami-rich salts.

Gomasio: “Goma” means sesame and “shio” means salt in Japanese. We gave this classic nutty, roasty, deep umami seasoning a new twist with kelp, black sesame, ginger, and jalapeno.

Kelp Flake: Pure flaked kelp & salt. A timeless combination to elevate your everyday foods with saline flavor nutrient dense kelp.

Grab yours today!

Kelp was the original source of naturally occurring MSG. We love it because it enhances flavors like a dashi broth. It makes tomatoes taste tomatoey-er, and ignites our spicy sauces and chili crisp to the next level.
