WHEN YOU HAVE FRESH HERBS JUST MIX IN A BUNCH OF KOSHER SALT IN WITH THEM AND MOISTURE WILL BE SUCKED OUT BY THE SALT AND YOU WILL HAVE A NICE FRAGRANT INFUSED SALT THAT YOU CAN USE AS A FINISHING SALT!!!!
I GO TO THE STORE AND SEE BLACK TRUFFLE SALT FOR $19.99. THAT IS INSANE! THE AMOUNT OF BLACK TRUFFLES IN THE SALT EQUALS AROUND $.75 AND THE SALT IS ABOUT $.10. THE GLASS CONTAINER AND THE LABELING IS WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR!!!!! MAKE YOUR OWN USING MY AWESOME TIPS AND INFUSE YOUR SALT, SAVE MONEY, AND SOUND COOL!!!

Great idea.
Hi Eric, I like the sound of this one! A bit mystified however with the referecne to black turffles. Theyare not a herb, and at the price they charge, I’m never in the position of having some extra ones lying around & going bad!
So exactly how do you do it? Just toss some fresh truffle slivers in with the salt & hope that the aroma gets sucked out?
You say to do this with kosher salt but can you do this with sea salt as well?
You can do it with any type of salt.
Hi Eric,
The herbs I get, it really is a great idea. However I’m with Reg on the truffles. How do you get the aromas to get into the salt??
In a professional kitchen this is a common way of not disposing of slivers. We get enough that it’s actually useful and when the truffle is freshly cut a little bit of the aroma will infuse into the salt. However, the yields I can get in a professional kitchen as opposed to a home kitchen are enormously different. At home I would be more inclined to use every last bit in a dish and at work I make sure every slice looks perfect on a plate then the slivers go in salt or are used in other ways. I’m just giving you options……….
So i just got some Oregon Black Truffles. I want to make truffle salt for for gifts. I have 12 3 oz jars and 36 oz off sea salts. About how many oz of truffle should i use to make the salt?
