Lemon Thyme Infused Sea Salt is Perfect for Your Seafood Recipe
Having grown up in New England, right on Long Island Sound, I can honestly say there are very few varieties of seafood that I don't like. And seafood is delicious when flavored with fresh herbs like those in this lemon sea salt recipe.
Thyme is one herb that I actually grow in my own herb garden and it comes back year after year. By combining fresh herbs, a little bit of citrus, and some coarse sea salt, you have the perfect herb-infused sea salt recipe to really bring out the flavor of your fish.
And by making this thyme salt recipe up in bulk, you don't have to worry about always having fresh lemon and thyme in your kitchen!
How to Make Infused Sea Salt
Learning how to make infused sea salt will save you a ton of money. You will never again purchase those pre-made salt seasonings ever again! If you don't care for lemon or thyme, the flavor possibilities are endless.
Try lime or oranges for the citrus and rosemary or tarragon for the herb. I had amazing luck with my tarragon and rosemary last year so those will definitely be planted again this spring if I don't see any new life out there soon.
You could do a cilantro/lime-infused sea salt that would go great in a homemade guacamole recipe!
Tips for Making DIY Flavored Salts
If you don't have coarse sea salt, you can definitely use kosher salt instead for this thyme salt recipe. I try to stay away from the processed and 'iodized' salts on the market today for health reasons.
