Rosemary, Orange & Thyme Flavored Herb Salt image

Time 50m

Yield Yield: 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups of coarse sea salt, coarse rock salt or flaky sea salt (like Celtic, Himalayan, English, Alaskan, French, Mediterranean, or Utah sourced salt)
3 tablespoons of fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves
6 navel oranges
citrus zester (this is my favorite & the one I used for these pics)
large rimmed baking sheet
glass jars for gift giving & air-tight storage (like 4 oz Ball jars, 5 oz Bormioli jars, or 2 oz Sunshine jars)

Steps:

Measure the sea salt into a large mixing bowl and set aside. Wash and dry the rosemary and thyme. Remove the leaves and discard the woody stems from both herbs. Grab a cutting board, finely chop the rosemary and thyme with a sharp knife, and measure both into the bowl along with the salt.
Wash and dry the oranges and use a zester tool to remove the peel from all six oranges in small, thin strips (make sure to avoid the white pith underneath). Alternately, you can use a small sharp knife to remove the peel in large strips and cut it into smaller pieces afterward.
Juice two of the oranges over a small bowl (remove any stray seeds). Add the fresh juice and orange zest to the sea salt. Stir the salt well with a wooden spoon so the orange juice, herbs, and zest are fully incorporated. Spread the mixture evenly onto a large rimmed baking sheet.
Set the oven to 220 degrees and pop the sheet inside. Bake 30 minutes or until the salt is no longer wet, stirring once halfway through. Break apart any clumps with a wooden spoon or fork and store the finished salt in an airtight container in your pantry. For best flavor, consume within 3 months.
