The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts...Butcher Salt

 Butcher Salt

While visiting Joy and Don a few weeks ago, I spotted this fabulous box with the most wonderful contents!

Simple ingredients for sure...

Sea salt, rosemary, marjoram, sage, and thyme all blended together....

All wonderful on their own, but together...ooh, la la.

I took pictures, already planning on re-creating the blend.

Once home I planned it all out...

French Grey Sea Salt

Fresh rosemary from the gardens of Parisienne Farmgirl, Angela

Dried sage from my own gardens

Thyme

Marjoram

All nicely ground up in my coffee grinder

This was easy peasy....

I just did the math as per the original Butcher Salt

99% sea salt

.3% rosemary

.2% thyme

.2% sage

.1% marjoram

And of course, tweaked it to my liking.

Which means a tad more rosemary and sage.

Cause that's how I roll.

This stuff has been used on beef, chicken, veggies, and even a salad or two.

I only wish I had something as sweet as the original container to store it in.

Nothing like galvanized and wood for a beautiful presentation.

PS...this company also makes a Gardener's Salt and a Fisherman's Salt..

Now on my to do list!

Anything new and exciting going on in your kitchen?

And for those who might be interested in how life is going here...

I would have to say pretty dang good.

I am still working part time.

Planting an itty bitty garden with a new rose bush and a couple flats of snapdragons, as well as some herbs and tomatoes.

Wanna see a pic?

Or two?

Knock Out rose and snapdragons

I have loved snapdragons in my gardens for many years...so bright and cheery!

 Herbs going in right smack in front of the snaps

Chives and chamomile

Tweaking the front porch....lots of hostas going in this week

Loving Jesus,

Loving people,
