Lemon Herb Salt

Lemon Herb Salt

Ingredients   
  • Grated zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 sprig each fresh rosemary, thyme, sage, parsley (can also add lavender if you have it)
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup coarse sea salt
Directions
  1. Dry the herbs and zest slightly by leaving them on the counter for an hour or two.
  2. In a small spice or coffee grinder, pulse salt with lemon zest, dried herbs, and pepper until salt forms smaller crystals and mixture is blended, about 30 seconds.
  3. Pack into glass jars with tight-fitting lids and store in a cool, dark place for up to 2 months. Attach a ribbon and gift tag with serving ideas.
