Jan’s Homemade Sriracha Salt

  4.3 – 4 reviews  

Typical baked ziti with onions, peppers, and sausage added to the sauce. The pans could be too small to fit all of the pasta and sauce. That’s okay; it’s still wonderful without baking!

Ingredients

  1. ½ cup kosher salt
  2. 5 teaspoons sriracha hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. Mix salt and sriracha hot sauce together in a small bowl. Spread mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and turn off the heat; let sit in the oven without opening the door, about 3 hours. Stir salt mixture, breaking up any clumps. If not completely dry, repeat the process and check after 1 hour.
  4. Place dry salt mixture in a food processor and pulse for a few seconds until clumps are gone.

I made it. It was Not this pretty Sriracha red-orange color like this picture. Instead it looked like brown, burnt salt. I think it would work better in a dehydrator.

This gets 10 stars! I tried the store-bought version of Sriracha salt and loved it, but ran out. I figured I could make my own to make do, since I can’t buy any in my area. It doesn’t matter. It’s a hundred times better when you make your own. I would like to leave a tip: when spreading it out on the baking sheet, really spread it out. I made a patty-like sheet and the edges almost burned and the middle was still slightly, ever-so-slightly, gooey. So, the three hours is perfect but you might get a better result if you don’t clump it all together. I’m hooked on this stuff. Next, I’m trying the hotter garlic sauce from Huy Fong Foods. Thanks a million WFDM!

So easy & the sriracha gives just the right amount of flavor. Really good on anything. If you’re a watermelon salter, like me, try it.
