Omnivore-Style Seasoning Salt

A homemade take on Angelo Garro's Omnivore Salt: a simple, versatile seasoning and finishing salt of sea salt, black pepper, red pepper and fennel.

Ingredients

  • 100 g good-quality coarse sea salt
  • 1 tbsp freshly ground black pepper
  • ½-1 tbsp crushed red pepper (adjust heat to taste)
  • 1-2 tbsp dried fennel fronds, or finely chopped fennel seeds

Instructions

  1. Lightly toast the fennel seeds in a dry pan, if using, then crush them.
  2. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl until evenly combined.
  3. Taste and adjust: add more fennel for sweeter, herbal notes, or more red pepper for heat.
  4. For a finer, more integrated texture, grind together in a mortar and pestle or spice grinder.
  5. Store in an airtight jar or shaker.
