Homemade rosemary salt is easier to make than you think - and way less expensive than those jars at the gourmet shop! You can make a large batch and pack the rosemary salt in pretty jars to give as gifts!
First you need to dry the rosemary: Make sure the rosemary is dry and be careful as it has a tendency to pop and splatter in the oil. Fry it in oil until it turns dark green - 20-30 seconds.
Drain on paper towels. The salt will be a little more moist due to the tiny bit of residual oil.
Dry in Microwave: Space the rosemary sprigs out on a paper towel lined plate - place another paper towel over top and microwave for 20 second intervals until the leaves are dark green, dried and leaves easily fall off stem. (may take up to 2 minutes depending on your microwave)
Make the Rosemary Salt:
Remove all the dried leaves from the stalks.
Add dried rosemary leaves and salt to food processor, blender or chopper.
Process until rosemary is finely chopped into the salt.
Store in airtight container.
