Sicilian Sea Salt Legality Question

[Guest guest]

There is a new sea salt--Sicilian Sea Salt with Lemon Zest added.  The reviews said it clumps and sticks eventually so you have to break it up.  Those are the only ingredients.  It's one of the products from Giada de laurentiss (sp?) on foodnetwork for Christmas gifts.  Was thinking of getting it.  Does it sound legal enough?  Would be great on fish which we eat a lot...

 

Thanks,

We-ell... my thought would be you could dry your own lemon zest from

organic lemons and add it to regular sea salt.

But that's just me.

Why not contact the company and get a letter?

You're faster than I am.  I was thinking of gifting it but I could use it also.  My mom has this awful habit of sucking lemons with lots of salt on them ;-).  Thank goodness she doesn't read this list.  I could make it but I'd be worried about it going bad.  I'm sure it's cheaper that way.  I'll skip it and do something else.  Maybe I will make a mason jar with it.  I always combine lemon and salt for something...even chicken livers.

Yes, well! " Make your own, make your own, make your own " will

continue to be my mantra because that's how I've gotten as well as I

have!

I use a microplane grater to shave off JUST the yellow part of the the

lemon skin of washed organic lemons. Spread it out on parchment paper and

let it dry in a low oven. Using the microplane creates really fine

granules and it dries very quickly.

When it's mixed in with the salt, it's not going to go bad -- the salt

will preserve it!

At the beginning of this diet, I didn't even make my own applesauce. Now, I'm going to try making my own mayo this weekend! I even made my own celery salt. I think you have a convert on your hands.

Make sure your eggs are room temperature.

And I recommend using three-fourths mild oil and one-fourth melted

coconut oil. The coconut oil adds a creamy richness to the mayo once it

cools.

<evil grin> We ate out last Sunday. My Dad got a Caesar Salad. Dug

in, and then looked up at me and said, " This dressing isn't as good

as yours.... "

Alyssa..

I'm like one of the laziest slacker you'll ever meet..

But, making my own has just been a blessing in disguise for me that even now

with feeling so much better- I still make my own.

I leave transgressions for when I go out.

It actually works out beautifully.
