Porcini Salt

Flavoured salts are very easy to make: requiring little more than an airtight jar and some patience. The rich flavour of the porcini mushrooms makes this salt one to use sparingly.

• 10g dried porcini mushrooms
• 125g sea salt flakes

Ingredients:

Method:

1. Place the dry porcini mushrooms into a mini-blender, coffee or spice grinder and blend until slightly finer than your salt flakes.
2. Combine the finely chopped mushrooms with the salt and give it a good mix.
3. Pour into an airtight container and leave for two weeks for the flavours to infuse.
4. Sprinkle a little on a mild dish, such as pasta, risotto or scrambled eggs, for a flavoursome addition.

Makes a small jar of flavoured salt.
