Follow The Directions

01

Step

0 mins

Preheat your oven to the lowest possible setting (around 170°F or 75°C), or use a dehydrator if you have one.

02

Step

5 mins

Roughly chop the ramp leaves and transfer them to the bowl of a food processor. (5 minutes)

03

Step

3 mins

Pulse until the ramps are very finely chopped, almost a paste. You want to release as much of their flavor as possible. (3 minutes)

04

Step

2 mins

In a medium bowl, combine the finely chopped ramps and sea salt. Mix thoroughly until the salt is evenly distributed and tinged green. (2 minutes)

05

Step

2 mins

Spread the ramp-salt mixture in a thin, even layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet or dehydrator tray. (2 minutes)

06

Step

2 hrs

If using an oven: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven, leaving the door slightly ajar to allow moisture to escape. Dry for 2-4 hours, or until the salt is completely dry and crystalline, stirring occasionally to prevent clumping. If using a dehydrator: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for drying herbs or vegetables. (120-240 minutes)

07

Step

5 mins

Once completely dry, transfer the ramp sea salt to an airtight container. Store in a cool, dark place to preserve its flavor and color. (5 minutes)

Ensure the ramp leaves are completely dry before processing to prevent a mushy final product.
For a more intense ramp flavor, use more ramps relative to the salt, but be sure to dry the mixture thoroughly to prevent spoilage.
This ramp sea salt is delicious sprinkled on grilled meats, roasted vegetables, eggs, or even used as a finishing salt for salads.
