Basil Salt

This basil-infused salt adds a touch of herbal brightness to everything from corn on the cob to sliced tomatoes to fresh watermelon. —James Schend, Taste of Home Deputy Editor

Ingredients

1/4 cup coarse sea salt
1/4 cup loosely packed basil leaves

Directions

Preheat oven to 225°. Place salt and basil in a small food processor; pulse until very finely chopped. Spread into a parchment-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan.
