Cabernet Salt
Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine known for having big fruit flavors, complexity, and pairing perfectly with heavy, meaty dishes. With earthy notes and a subtle smokiness, why not be able to pair it with lighter dishes too? Cabernet Salt is wonderful compliment to heirloom tomatoes, soft cheese, or sprinkle a pinch into a salad. It may seem intimidating, but it is quite simple to make at home. Boil a bottle of Cabernet in a medium saucepan. Simmer and stir until a tablespoon amount of thick-but not syrupy- liquid is left. Add a cup (or more) of Fleur de Sel salt until all the liquid is absorbed. Place on a parchment paper on a baking sheet and let dry for two days. And voila!
