How to Make Sriracha Garlic Salt

  1. **Prepare the Baking Sheet:** Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. **Combine Ingredients:** In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine 2 cups kosher salt, 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce, and 2 tablespoons granulated garlic powder.
  3. **Slow-Dry Method (1-2 days):** Spread the mixture thinly and evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Let it dry uncovered at room temperature for 1-2 days, stirring once or twice to prevent clumping.
  4. **Store:** Once completely dry, transfer the Sriracha Garlic Salt to an airtight container and store at room temperature.
  5. **Quick-Dry Method (Oven Method):** Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the mixture thinly on the prepared baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven, immediately turn off the oven, and close the door. Let the salt sit in the residual heat for 2-3 hours, or until completely dry. If it clumps, place the salt mixture in a zip-top bag and gently crush with a rolling pin or the bottom of a glass jar.
  6. **Break Up Clumps (if necessary):** For either method, if any clumps form, simply break them up by gently crushing them with a rolling pin or a clean glass jar in a zip-top bag.
