Categories     Vegetable

Number Of Ingredients 3

•1 cup kosher salt
•1/4 cup peeled garlic cloves (1 to 1-1/2 garlic heads)
•1/4 (or more*) cup ground pepper (freshly ground peppercorns recommended)

Steps:

  • FOR PLAIN GARLIC SALT: Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat mat. Set aside. In a food processor, combine the salt and garlic. Process until the garlic is finely minced and the consistency is like moist sand, approximately 20 seconds. Pour salt/garlic mixture onto lined baking sheet; spread out evenly. Bake until dry and crisp, approx. 1 hour. Return to food processor and pulse until the consistency of cornmeal. Store in airtight container. FOR SEASONED GARLIC SALT: Follow above directions for making Plain Garlic Salt. Add ground pepper to garlic salt in food processor and pulse 2 or 3 times to combine. Store in airtight container. *For a less salty, more peppery seasoning, increase the pepper to as much as 1 cup. Or, adjust the ratio of salt to pepper to suit your personal taste. Use to season meats, vegetables, sauces, eggs, & popcorn.
