About Salt bun
Salt Bun is a savory baked treat typically found in Caribbean cuisine, particularly popular in Jamaican baking traditions. Its dough is enriched with ingredients like flour, butter, and milk, while salt provides its defining flavor. Often enjoyed as a snack or breakfast item, it features a tender, slightly dense texture and pairs well with cheese, spreads, or meats. The bun is relatively high in carbohydrates due to its base of refined flour, with moderate fat content from butter and milk. While it provides energy, the refined flour and sodium contribute to lower fiber content and higher salt intake, which make portion control important for a balanced diet. Traditionally made without sweeteners, it’s a healthier alternative to many sugary pastries, offering a simple and satisfying option for those seeking savory flavors. Salt Bun highlights the versatility of Caribbean bread-making traditions in combining flavor with sustenance.
