This flavored salt is an essential garnish in our Scallops Crudo with Vanilla Salt, but it could work as a creative garnish on a variety of savory or sweet dishes. To see what we mean, try it in a champagne vinaigrette or atop some chocolate mousse.

This recipe was featured as part of our DIY Flavored Salts project.

Place the salt and vanilla seeds in a small bowl and rub them between your fingers until they’re uniformly combined. Store in an airtight container at room temperature until ready to use.
