• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring the walnuts regularly.

SMOKED, FLAVORED, AND WOOD-ROASTED SEA SALTS

Steps:

• To smoke, mix the salt and 1 teaspoon of the flavoring ingredient together and spread on a baking sheet or in a baking dish. Place in a 175°F (or lower) closed wood-fired oven or grill for 3 to 4 hours. Let cool.
• If you want less smokiness, smoke only the sea salt, then add the other flavoring after. For more intense citrus flavor, add a few drops of citrus oil to the jar and shake to distribute.
• To flavor, mix the salt and 2 teaspoons of flavoring ingredient (such as peppercorns, citrus zest, lavender, vanilla bean, nutmeg, smoky paprika, or crumbled tomato skin from oven-roasted tomatoes) together and add to a glass jar.
• To roast, spread the salt in a small cast-iron skillet or clay baking dish. Moisten evenly with water or a flavored liquid such as tea, coffee, or even mushroom liquid. If using just water, add a powdered flavoring such as green tea or powdered mushrooms to the moistened salt. Slowly roast in a wood-fired oven, cooker or covered grill until the salt dries. Let cool.
• Store flavored salt in an airtight glass container in a cool, dark place.
