Roast SZP in a hot, dry skillet until smoking but not burnt. Let that cool a little bit.

fully incorporate the flavors together.

You can either keep it a little chunky or fine,
as you like Use equal amts of SZP
and sea salt. You can adjust based on
your tastes. If you are using a very
fine sea salt or just regular table salt, decrease the amt of salt.

sprinkle with SZP Salt.

party? Nothing like watching the reaction of your guests as their lips tingle and they discover a new taste!

Matcha is Japanese green tea powder made from the highest quality of green
tea leaves. Its a stunning and lovely mossy color which makes such a
pretty finishing salt, especially if you use a white plate and also sprinkle
some directly on the plate.

using coarse sea salt

Use with dishes that are light in texture and flavor, since this salt’s flavor is more delicate and subtle.
It gives a beautiful floral, grassy, sweet and soothing aroma.
