Method
- Prepare your jars - or keep in one large one
Pick over the herbs and discard any scraggy leaves, and the tough stalks- Roughly chop the herbs with scissors into a bowl and combine with the salt
Using a food processor or liquidiser goblet, process the mixture in small batches until well blended- Stir the batches together to unify and remove any larger leaves that have escaped the blades
Line a couple of tea trays or baking trays with silicon or greaseproof paper and spread the salt out roughly evenly over the paper- Leave to dry off the excess moisture overnight and then jar up and label
- Makes a great gift
- Try making single variety flavours or mixtures with garlic and/or lemon or orange zest
