Homemade Citrus Salt

This simple and versatile condiment combines the vibrant essence of dried citrus fruits with the savoury essence of salt. With just a few easy steps, you can create your own citrus salt blend that will elevate the taste of your favorite summer dishes.

Recipe: Citrus Salt

Ingredients:

- 2-3 slices of dried citrus (Lemon, Lime, or Orange)

- 1 cup of salt (preferably Maldon or Fleur Du Sel)

Instructions:

  1. Place 3-4 slices of your favorite dried citrus in a food processor (can mix and match if you would like).
  1. Pulse the food processor a few times (until the citrus slices are finely chopped and blended)
  1. Add 1 cup of salt to the food processor. Pulse the mixture again allowing the citrus slices to incorporate evenly with the salt. Continue pulsing until you achieve a fragrant and flavourful citrus salt blend.
  1. Once the citrus salt is ready, transfer it to an airtight container for storage. Make sure to label the container for easy identification.

  1. Vibrant Salads: Add a zesty touch to your salads by sprinkling citrus salt as a seasoning. It will enhance the freshness of the greens and add a pop of flavour to your salad creations.
