Has anyone ever made wine salt? It's really easy to do, looks beautiful, tastes great and makes great gifts for the holidays. I plan to sell it in my tasting room once I get up and running too.
Here's my Sel de Frontenac
I started with a bottle of my 2012 Frontenac:
This was slowly simmered down just until there were a few tablespoons or so of liquid left. It is the point where it starts to get thicker but not thick like syrup.
Then I stirred in about 1.5-2 cups of Kosher Salt:
This was spread out on a sheet pan and allowed to dry well for a couple of days. You can put it in a low low oven or food dehydrator to speed up the drying. It still has a bit of a sticky tacky texture, but it is oh so good.
