Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Coarse sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried lavender buds (culinary grade)
- 1 teaspoon Dried marjoram
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
Measure all your ingredients carefully and set them out on your work surface.
In a small bowl, combine the coarse sea salt with dried thyme, dried rosemary, dried oregano, dried lavender buds, and dried marjoram.
Add the garlic powder and freshly cracked black pepper to the mixture.
Using a mortar and pestle, gently grind the seasoning blend to break down the dried herbs slightly and help them incorporate with the salt. Alternatively, pulse the mixture briefly in a spice grinder or food processor (2-3 pulses) to achieve a slightly finer texture.
Transfer the finished Provencal seasoning salt into an airtight glass jar or container. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
Use as a finishing salt to sprinkle over dishes, or as a seasoning base for chicken, pork, roasted vegetables, or even fresh bread with olive oil.
