Description
Jalapeño Salt is a bold, zesty homemade seasoning made with just dehydrated jalapeños and coarse kosher salt. Perfect for adding a flavorful kick to your favorite meals, this DIY spice blend is easy, cost-effective, and customizable.
Ingredients
– 1/2 cup dehydrated jalapeños (about 10 fresh jalapeños) – 1 cup coarse kosher salt
Instructions
1. Start by washing and dicing your fresh jalapeños. Lay them out on a dehydrator tray and let them dry at 125°F for 6–10 hours, or until they’re completely brittle. 2. Once dried, toss the jalapeños into the bowl of your food processor and pulse a few times to break them into smaller bits. 3. Next, add the coarse kosher salt to the mix. 4. Blend in the food processor until the jalapeños and salt are thoroughly combined and reach your preferred texture. 5. Finally, transfer your glorious creation into an airtight container to keep it fresh.
Notes
Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container for up to 6 months. Use as a finishing salt on eggs, vegetables, popcorn, grilled meats, and more. You can adjust heat by using more or fewer jalapeños or mixing with different chili varieties.
