Easy Homemade Celery Salt

One of my favorite seasoned salts is celery salt. I love making it from scratch it's incredibly simple to make. This homemade celery salt only has two ingredients and no extra fillers or stabilizers.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sea salt
  • 2 cups dried celery leaves

Instructions

  • Measure sea salt into a mixing bowl.
  • Crumble leaves into a bowl with salt. Alternatively, you can grind the celery leaves and salt together in a coffee grinder or spice blender. Pick out some of the “stemmier” parts if needed.
  • Store in an airtight container or spice bottle.

Notes

  • If you're starting with fresh celery leaves, be sure to dehydrate them first:
    • Dehydrator – Place two cups of celery leaves (with no stems) on your dehydrator tray for two to three hours until crispy to the touch (this is our favorite food dehydrator).
    • Oven – If you don’t have a dehydrator, you can dry herbs using an oven. Set oven to the lowest temperature (usually between 180-200 degrees F). Place celery leaves on a cookie sheet and stir every five minutes to ensure no browning or burning occurs. When the leaves are crispy to the touch and crumble easily, cool on the counter for a few minutes before proceeding.
  • Celery salt will have its best flavor the first three months, so only make enough to last about that long.
