Herb Salt

This aromatic homemade herb salt is a versatile staple that deserves a permanent spot in your kitchen cupboard. By blending coarse salt with dried hardy herbs like rosemary, sage, or thyme, you create a punchy seasoning that enhances the natural flavours of almost any savoury dish. It is an excellent low-sugar alternative to shop-bought rubs, providing a sophisticated depth of flavour with just two simple ingredients.

Ideal for seasoning roasted vegetables, grilled meats, or even a simple focaccia, this store-cupboard hero is as practical as it is delicious. Making a batch takes only moments and the salt acts as a natural preservative, keeping the herbs vibrant for months. Keep a jar on your countertop for a quick way to add a fragrant, artisanal touch to your everyday mid-week meals.
