Saltbush 500g

 Serving size: 1 teaspoon approx 2gm ( for cooking) 1 g for sprinkling over dinner!

                     1  dessertspoon  approx  4 gm

The leaves of the Saltbush are dried and ground and provide us with a unique seasoning that gives that  essential umami element to food - instead of using salt.

Use as a salt substitute in anything and everything!  Add it onto the top of a focaccia or a sourdough for both flavour and nutritive value. Combine with other herbs for a special spice mix. Add the dried, ground leaves to aolis or dressings.  Make a Saltbush and Pepper Squid or sprinkle of hand cut chips and it is perfect to rub on a prime cut before grilling or roasting.

An average (large) serve of 2g is equal to only 12.6 mg of sodium compared to 2g table salt that has 763mg of sodium

 Storing Saltbush 

The dried herb powder must be kept airtight so as to not absorb moisture from the air. It is best kept in a dark place, such as inside a cupboard to mitigate the effects of oxidisation from light. This is not harmful but will cause the flakes to discolour and lose some of their  phyto-chemical activity.
