Make your own herb-spice salt

To make a delicious herbal salt yourself, you need 100 grams of salt, for example, sea salt, and 10 grams of herbs of your choice.

Mix together the salt and herbs and store them in an airtight storage jar.
If you use fresh, not dried, herbs, the salt can get a little soggy. Store salt with fresh herbs in the refrigerator.
You can use a variety of herbs, such as oregano, thyme, rosemary, or chives.

If you want to give the spiced salt a nice color, add about 20 milliliters of red wine to 100 grams of salt.

The red wine spice salt is particularly suitable for refining game dishes.
Stir the red wine into the salt. It should soak up the liquid completely.
With a pinch of rosemary, thyme, and sage, the red salt gets the right flavor.
To keep the salt long, put it in the oven at 60 degrees for two and a half hours. It is best to use a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave the oven door open a crack.
Then simply fill the salt into a storage jar.

Pasta or fish dishes get a sour, fresh note with lemon salt.

Add the grated zest of one organic lemon and one chopped lemongrass leaf to 100 grams of salt.
Mix well or alternatively crush the mixture in a mortar.
If you like, you can refine the lemon salt with a little garlic.
Store the salt in the refrigerator. So it lasts particularly long.

This chili salt is simple and fiery and consists of only two ingredients: chili and sea salt.

For 100 grams of spiced salt, you need one or two chopped chilies.
Mix the chilies and salt and, if you have used fresh chilies, also dry the mixture in the oven at 100 degrees on a baking sheet.

If ordinary chili salt is too boring for you, you can try chocolate chili salt.

Add one to two tablespoons of cocoa powder to the finished, dried chili salt.
Mix well and pour the salt into a sealable jar.
Chocolate chili salt goes well with minced meat dishes, for example. If you feel like experimenting, you can also sprinkle the salt on fruit.
