Herb salt is a flavorful blend of salt and dried herbs, often used to enhance the taste of various dishes. It can be a simple combination of salt and one herb, or a complex mixture of multiple herbs and spices.

Why should I use herb salt?

Herb salt adds a depth of flavor and complexity to your food that plain salt alone cannot achieve. It's a convenient way to incorporate herbs into your cooking, especially if you don't have fresh herbs on hand.

How do I store herb salt?

Store herb salt in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. It should last for up to 1 year if stored properly.
