Thanksgiving is over, the bird has been eaten, and Christmas is right around the corner. That means we're in the final shopping push as December 25 barrels toward us. If you're looking for something unique to give your foodie friend this holiday season, I suggest a collection of sea salts.
Some argue that flavored salts are a cheat, but I disagree. When used properly, a flavored salt will magnify the flavors in your dish and make the good taste wonderful. A small pinch of garlic sea salt will perfect your steamed or sauteed vegetables. Some smokey salt will add a nice hint of flavor to your meat.
To pull together your gift: Either grab a basket to store the salts in, or re-package the salts in vessels that show off the crystals inside. Long test tubes or glass-topped canisters collected into a larger tin work quite well.
Happy Shopping!
