Podcast appearances and mentions of ben jacobsen

Ben Jacobsen is the founder of Jacobsen Salt Co., renowned for producing premium sea salts harvested from Netarts Bay on the Oregon Coast. Established in 2011, Jacobsen Salt Co. has become an iconic food brand in the Pacific Northwest and beyond.  Jacobsen's journey into the world of salt began during his time living in Denmark and Norway, where he developed an appreciation for the quality and versatility of artisan sea salts. Upon returning to the Pacific Northwest, he embarked on an extensive search, testing over two dozen coastal sites, before selecting Netarts Bay for its clean, clear waters and high salinity - ideal for salt harvesting.  Ben shares with us some of his cherished food and industry anecdotes, as well as some insights on growing a brand in the food industry.  JacobsenSalt.com   Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.Zupans.com  RingSide Steakhouse:  www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

Ben Jacobsen was living in Europe in 2003 when his girlfriend brought home good quality finishing salt and he was blown away by how much better it was than anything he had ever had in his life. After returning back to the states a few years later, Ben began experimenting with making salt on his own, sourcing sea water from the Washington and Oregon coast to see if he could replicate that salt he had enjoyed in the early 2000's.    After sampling 27 different locations for sea water, Ben finally landed on Netarts Bay in Oregon for water that produced the best salt in the world and opened his small business in 2011. Today, Jacobsen Salt Co. is recognized as one of the best salt makers in the world and their products are used by award-winning Chefs and celebrities, have been featured in multiple noteworthy publications, and are sold nationwide in both specialty shops and places like Williams Sonoma.    In this episode Ben shares the story of building his business, some of the challenges he's experienced over the years, why good salt is always worth the small investment for any home cook, and a few bonus recommendations for great restaurants in the Portland area.      Resources: Follow Jacobsen Salt Co. on Instagram Follow Ben on Instagram Purchase Jacobsen Salt Online Check out their two newest products: house special seasoning & Italian seasoning Follow Female Foodie on Instagram

There are few ingredients you will find in every single chef's kitchen. Across cuisines, styles, and preferences, there may be none as fundamental as salt. Gracing us for a second time is food journalist, cookbook author, and New York Times columnist Melissa Clark in our New York studio. Melissa, John, & Andrea discuss the history of salt and how they like to implement it into their recipes and cooking. Then we travel to the Oregon coast to speak with Jacobsen Salt founder Ben Jacobsen. We sit outside the salt factory when Ben details how he got into the salt business, how Jacobsen produces their salt, and why it is a pivotal part of cuisine. Watch our interview on YouTube HERE!

Social media platforms like Facebook and Spotify analyze huge quantities of data from users before feeding selections back as personal “memories.” How do the algorithms select which content to turn into memories? And how does this feature affect the way we remember--and even what we think memory is? We spoke to David Beer, professor of sociology at the University of York, about how algorithms and classifications play an increasingly important role in producing and shaping what we remember about the past.

This episode is a really great chat I had with Ben Jacobsen and David Beer both of The University of York. We talk about their new book Social Media and the Automatic Production of Memory Classification, Ranking and the Sorting of the Past which is an exploration of the ways in which social media engages with memory and how this becomes significant for their platforms. They focus on the "Facebook Memories" app within the Facebook platform which generates reminders to users of previous posts, photos or other content. We talk about what kinds of memories Facebook values and how it draws in previous interactions to create new content which is likely to produce more engagement in the present. They tell me about how the distinction between a "real" memory and one created by Facebook is blurring and how the platform's perspective on what memories are valuable differ from those of users. This also tells us a lot about the role which the platform plays in creating or assessing the value of memories. You can read more about their work in an LSE blog post.

Not since Lewis & Clark has anyone harvested salt in the Pacific Northwest with any real success. That was until Ben Jacobsen came along. After falling in love with fine sea salts while living abroad, Ben took it upon himself to learn the craft, eventually founding Jacobsen Salt Co. and becoming America's top salt maker.

Kathi Jaworowicz - Wer Gewinnt? // Ben Jacobsen - Wach?! by K21 Wunstorf

Come hang as we chat with the king of all things salt... Ben Jacobsen of Jacobsen Salt! We're getting INTO it and talking about the nitty gritty of the salt world, what kinds of salts to be using when, and more!!   Ben's Website: https://jacobsensalt.com/     Cookbook: https://www.amazon.com/Whats-Gaby-Cooking-What-Recipes/dp/1419742868/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=gaby+dalkin&qid=1578324592&s=books&sr=1-1

Ben Jacobsen is the first person to harvest salt off the Oregon Coast since Lewis and Clark.

The Salty Dog of Netarts Bay Ben Jacobsen is the first person to harvest salt off the Oregon Coast since Lewis and Clark. Follow him: @ben_jacobsen Ben Jacobsen started making salt in 2011, and it didn’t take long for the former Vancouver resident to land on some important radars.The New York Times wrote a story about him in 2012. Noted chefs started to use his salt from Oregon waters. And a Williams-Sonoma Inc. partnership sent his business on a fast, ascending trajectory that hasn’t slowed. Jacobsen, 43, no longer participates in making the white, flaky crystals. And long gone are the days when he’d drive a seawater-loaded truck from the Oregon Coast to Portland for processing into salt. These days, the Hudson’s Bay High School graduate’s focus is marketing, sales, and product development. For the future, he plans for more of the same, convinced he’s got the world’s best job.Jacobsen didn’t show signs of becoming a salt maker when he arrived in Vancouver at age 13 from Burlington, Vt., with his family. His father, neurologist Dr. Paul Jacobsen, had accepted work in town. His mother, Jane Jacobsen, would one day be executive director of the Vancouver-based Confluence Project. Not inspired by software, marketing and sales, Jacobsen followed his hunch. Using $1,500 of his own money, he set out in his 2008 Subaru Forester and traveled the Washington and Oregon coasts, searching for perfect saltwater.He traveled as far north as Neah Bay at the northwest tip of the Lower 48 and he traveled south, sampling the waters of Willapa Bay in Southwest Washington. In all, he tested 20 spots in Washington and Oregon, ruling out most for obvious reasons: too much turbulence or too many sources of freshwater into the seawater or too much runoff from dairy and logging operations. But at a spot off Whiskey Creek Road, a few miles north of Cape Lookout State Park and a dozen miles inland of Tillamook, Ore., Jacobsen found the spot.It’s at Netarts Bay, chosen because it’s protected from the crashing ocean surf and, best of all, features high-salinity water that’s filtered through millions of oysters. Jacobsen Salt Co. was started.

On today's THE FOOD SEEN, Ben Jacobsen's relationship with salt began in Denmark, not while growing up in Vermont baking fresh bread and watching his mother's spinach soufflé rise. He was studying for an MBA, when his then girlfriend gave him the gift of finishing salt. From then on, Ben would splurge on small packets of Scandinavian salt that he'd never be without. Upon moving back to the states, Ben started an experiment in Portland, Oregon, one that took 2 1/2 years of trail and error until Jacobsen Salt Co. was finalized on 2011. He found the watersof Netarts Bay, already know for it's amazing oysters, perfect for thousands of gallons to be turned into his own brand of hand-harvest sea salt. Now, chef's around the country use his salt as an important component to a dish, the same way Ben sprinkles it on the simple things, like eggs and toast in the morning. This program has been sponsored by The International Culinary Center. Image by John Valls Image by Jeff Scott Shaw “It's just nice to bring good salt with you wherever you go.” [23:55] “It's very difficult to make good salt at home.” [30:15] —Ben Jacobsen on The Food Seen
