Homemade Basil Salt (Easy DIY Herb Salt Recipe!)

|
By Alexandra Caspero Verified
| Delish Knowledge
This homemade basil salt takes just two ingredients and a few minutes to make. Use it to season tomatoes, pasta, eggs, roasted veggies, and fresh bread. Get ready for your new favorite condiment- homemade basil salt! It’s salty, herby, and perfect for sprinkling on just about everything. I love it on caprese salad, on pasta, and on my grilled vegetable platter. It even makes a gorgeous rim for a summer cocktail or a sprinkle over fresh popcorn.

Line a square 8- or 9-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large bowl with a hand mixer), whip the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add the extracts, powdered sugar, and heavy cream, then whip again until the mixture is fluffy and smooth. Arrange a single, even layer of graham crackers in the bottom of the dish, breaking crackers as needed to fit.

Cheesy Zucchini Tart

By Alexandra Caspero Verified
| Delish Knowledge
Make the Crust Whisk together the flours, salt and parmesan cheese. Cut in the butter, using a pastry cutter, two forks or a food processor fitted with a dough blade until the mixture is crumbly. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons of water, stirring gently until everything is evenly moistened; add the final tablespoon of water if necessary to make a cohesive dough. Form the dough into a round ball. Wrap in plastic wrap or place in a quart-size bag and set in the fridge to rest for at least 30 minutes.
