Ingredients
Prep Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time: 1-2 Hours
Quantity: Makes 800g of salt
- 100g of Wild Garlic leaves
- 800g of Rock Salt
Method
- Wash and drain the Wild Garlic leaves.
- Add them to food processor with 100g of the Salt and blitz into a paste.
- Put the remaining 700g of Salt to a large bowl and add the blitzed Wild Garlic-Salt paste on top, mixing it all together until all of the salt crustals are green.
- Spread the combined Salt on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake at the lowest setting possible for 1-2 hours to dry the salt. Open the door of the oven at regular intervals to prevent overheating. Alternatively, you can dry the salt in an electic dehydrator.

Tip: If you prefer your salt to be a more vivid green, use a larger quantity of wild garlic in the recipe.
