Chive Flower Salt

Just what you need to sprinkle on top of good quality olive oil for dipping your bread!!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chive flowers, harvested and dried (firmly packed)
  • 1 kg (box) sea salt

Instructions

  • Make sure your chive flowers have dried completely (any sign of moisture will introduce mould); place them in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to chop (you'll notice the flower petals don't really get small at this point).
  • Add the salt and slowly pulverise again (not so much that the salt gets really fine but just enough to use the grit from the salt to make the flower petals smaller.
  • pack in an air-tight container and keep in a cool, dry place indefinitely (6 month to a year)
