How to Make Citrus Ginger Salt

  1. Preheat oven to 200°F (93°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. Spread the orange zest and grated ginger evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until completely dry and crisp, stirring halfway through.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  6. Once cool, combine the dried zest and ginger with 1 cup (240ml) of your chosen sea salt, Himalayan pink salt, or kosher salt. Mix thoroughly.
  7. Store your Citrus Ginger Salt in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Enjoy!
