The recipe couldn’t be easier! Combine the sea salt, garlic, fresh rosemary and fresh thyme in a food processor and pulse. Spread the mixture in a thin layer on a baking tray and bake for 20 minutes.

Salt is a natural preserver, it will last forever as long as it’s dried completely before packaging and properly stored. However, I advise you to use it within 6 months as the intensity of flavor will diminish over time.
You can customize aromatic salt according to your taste. Replace thyme with sage or basil, add some spices, citrus peel, increase the amount of herbs, etc
