Basil Lemon Salt

Making your own flavoured salt is quick and easy. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 4 months. Use to season meat, poultry, fish, vegetables or pasta. It's also great for holiday or hostess gift giving.

1 cup sea salt
¼ cup fresh basil
1 lemon, zest only

Add the salt, basil and lemon zest to a mini food processor or blender and pulse until the basil is finely chopped.

Remove the mixture and place on top of parchment paper. Flatten the salt and allow to air dry for 24 hours before putting it in an airtight container.

Makes 1 cup.
