This homemade rosemary salt is one of my favorite seasonings. You can use it on roasted pork, seafood, butter, avocado toast, and so much more! This seasoning takes less than 5 minutes to make and saves well for a week in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer.
I love how fresh this seasoning tastes. The garlic and lemon and the perfect amount of zest along side the fresh rosemary and course sea salt.
Ingredients
Fresh Rosemary- This seasoning really needs fresh rosemary. Freeze dried rosemary or rosemary seasoning can be substituted, but they don’t give off as strong or fresh of flavor.
Salt- I like course sea salt for this recipe
Lemon Zest- Fresh lemon zest adds so much to this seasoning. It also makes it so versatile to cook with. I love lemon zest on grilled tuna steaks especially.
Garlic Cloves- This ingredient can be left out if desired. My family loves garlic so we normally use 1-2 fresh garlic cloves, very finely minced or grated.
Thats it! This seasoning is so simple and only requires 4 ingredients.

How to use Rosemary Salt
My favorite way to use this seasoning is added into my homemade butters and then spread on toasted sourdough. This has become such a staple snack in my household.
This rosemary salt is also so yummy on top of avocado toast with a poached egg. The tanginess of the lemon zest pairs so nicely with the avocado.
I also use this seasoning to quickly season tuna steaks for a quick and easy dinner or on my oven roasted pork tenderloin with cranberries for a simple dinner recipe with a holiday touch.
The possibilities are truly endless with this one! Start out using the seasoning sparingly though since it is a salt based one and add more to taste.
I hope you love and get as much use out of this Rosemary Salt as my family does!
