Description
Create a spicy seasoning by dehydrating diced jalapenos, blending them with coarse kosher salt, and storing the mixture in an airtight container. Perfect for adding a kick to your dishes!
Ingredients
Dehydrated Jalapenos
- ½ cup dehydrated jalapenos (about 10)
Coarse Kosher Salt
- 1 cup coarse kosher salt
Instructions
- Prepare Jalapenos: Wash and dice fresh jalapenos, then spread them on a dehydrator tray. Dehydrate at 125°F for 6-10 hours or until completely brittle.
- Blend Ingredients: Place dehydrated jalapenos in a food processor and pulse 2-3 times. Add coarse kosher salt to the processor. Pulse until fully combined to preferred texture.
- Store: Transfer jalapeno salt to an airtight container for storage. Use as needed in dishes.
Notes
- Dehydrator Tips: Ensure jalapenos are completely brittle post-dehydration to maintain salt quality.
- Texture Preference: Adjust blending time for desired salt texture—chunky or fine.
- Storage: Store in airtight container to prevent clumping.
- Variations: Customize blend by adding other dried spices like garlic powder.
- Handling Jalapenos: Use gloves when handling fresh jalapenos to avoid skin irritation.
