Finishing Salt

Packaged in a small jar with a label, it makes a great shower favor or small gift.

3   48 ounce boxes of Morton's Kosher Coarse Salt 

6 ounces of organic no-salt mixed spice

Dump it all into a giant bowl.  Mixed it up with a large spoon.  Filled the jars with a funnel and labeled them with round stickers.  On one side I  wrote  what it was that was in the jar, on the other " Bridal Shower" and the date.  Then we screwed the lids on the jars and that was it!  Everyone took theirs and everyone commented on how excited they were to use it. 

 Remember.  Finishing salt is tossed on when the cooking is done and the serving is about to begin.  Grill a steak...finish with a nice pinch of finishing salt.  Grill a piece of chicken, fish.  Same thing.  Cut little slabs of unsalted butter...put them on a plate, sprinkle with some salt.  Done.  

We chose a mixed spice mix but you could also use garlic flakes, onion flakes, whatever you might like.  Easy, inexpensive (about a dollar each including the jar), nice.
