- 1 lemon zested
- 1 cup fresh rosemary
- 4 cups sea salt
Zest the entire lemon, making sure only to get the yellow rind, and not the bitter white pith.
Clean the fresh rosemary, just to make sure no stems have made it into the batch.
Add sea salt, rosemary and lemon zest to a food processor. Pulse until the rosemary and lemon zest are fully incorporated.
Spread onto a foil-lined sheet pan. Bake in a 250ºF oven for 1 hour, stirring at the 30-minute mark.
Let cool, and store in an air-tight container.
- Baking the sea salt allows for the zest and rosemary to fully dehydrate and infuse its flavors into the salt.
- Play with the ratios of lemon zest, sea salt and rosemary, and adjust to your liking. There's no wrong way!
