🌿 Homemade Garlic Salt Recipe
Why make your own?Homemade garlic salt packs so much more flavor than store-bought. Because you're grinding the dried garlic fresh, the result is potent, aromatic, and customizable.
🧄 Ingredients
- 3 parts salt (sea salt or Himalayan pink salt work great)
- 1 part garlic powder (from home-dried garlic or store-bought)
- 1 part dried parsley (or other herb: thyme, oregano, rosemary)
- Optional: A small pinch of  arrowroot powder to prevent clumping
🔥 How to Make It
-
Prepare & Dry Garlic
- Peel and slice your garlic cloves.
- Dry in a dehydrator (I use my Excalibur) or a freeze-dryer until completely crisp.
- Store the dried garlic in airtight jars with oxygen absorbers for later use.
-
Make Garlic Powder
- Grind the dried garlic into a fine powder using a spice grinder or coffee grinder.
-
Mix
- Combine your garlic powder with salt and herbs in the ratio above.
- Add a tiny bit of cornstarch or arrowroot if you’re worried about moisture or clumping.
-
Store
- Keep in an airtight container, preferably in a cool, dark place.
- A shaker lid makes this easy to use on everything!
✨ Pro Tips
- Want smoky flavor? Add smoked salt.
- Like a chunkier texture? Pulse just a few times instead of grinding to a fine powder.
- Try herb variations depending on what you have growing!
