HOMEMADE HERB SALT

Yes, the color in this salt will fade within a few weeks, but the herby flavor and aroma will remain intact for much longer. I described this as a finishing salt, meaning it's used to season cooked food at the table; however, it can also be used in place of regular salt in any recipe preparation.

CRAZY SALT



Crazy Salt image

I posted this recipe for the request of those that are asking what crazy salt is, Recipe #7542. A recipe I adopted. You can add 1 teaspoon of MSG which I'm not a fan of. This are made with dried herbs. Keep this along side the range to use as a salt substitute as needed. It keeps the salt intake down, because when you go to use a teaspoon of salt and use this in its place it you really are using just 1/2 a teaspoon salt. That is a good thing! And Great flavor! Makes a nice gift placed in a pretty jar with a ribbon.
