Don’t waste the wine you can’t drink at home. Use it to make some funky salt! Add salt! Have it!
Boil, Pour, Mix, Dry
Four steps
1 Start by pouring a bottle of red wine into a pot, bring it to a boil over high heat, lower the temperature, and cook slowly for 2 hours, then wait for the wine to slowly thicken. Then cool the wine at room temperature.
As long as the color hangs off the spoon slightly, you can’t cook it to the same degree as the syrup.
2 Pour the non-iodized salt into the cooled wine.
3 Add the wine concentrate and iodized salt in a ratio of 1:2 until all the liquid is absorbed by the salt. Then
Stir it up! Mix well!

4. Finally, place the wine salt on a sheet of paper in the kitchen and let it dry in the sun for 3-5 days.
The sky in Shanghai is not beautiful. It was cloudy all week, but it didn’t affect the weather. After drying for about 4 days, it dries completely.
The salt color of the dry wine will fade, but it is still a very beautiful grape color!
Tip.
Special sealed jars are used to store the flavored salts to better lock in the aromas of the wine. You can put a little rice in the pot to store the salt, which has a moisturizing and absorbent effect.
The ingredients can be swapped out and you can use them as you wish!
Wine salt is great for cooking meat.
When you fry a steak with a little wine salt, the red wine flavor goes super well with the red meat. When the wine salt comes into contact with the heat of the steak, it slowly melts, releasing the wine flavor. Many Michelin restaurant chefs choose to mix flavored salt with grilled meats and vegetables, which enriches the single flavor of the ingredients.
Mashed potatoes with steak are also suitable for seasoning with a small amount of wine salt, which activates the aromas of the carbonara.
The beautiful Margarita, the salt that symbolizes tears, turns into wine salt in the mouth. The purple color scheme adds texture to the cocktail, and it’s simply beautiful!
During the break, a cup of coffee with a pinch of wine salt.
The salt has the function of “amplifying” the flavor, making the aroma of the coffee stronger and reducing the bitterness of the coffee.
Guests are also proud to be guests: “Give Auntie a cappuccino with salt and wine.”
On a hot summer day, an iced soda is also good with salt.
It cools and cools the heat, while replenishing the salt lost through sweating, and the salt soda turns a light pink, especially when fresh.
A glass of wine-flavored salt soda is not greasy.
While eating pasta, I felt the sound of “shaking the glass of red wine, lips like eating duck blood” echoing in my ears. If you can’t finish your wine, you’re no longer afraid to waste it. You can use it to make some salt. Every day, you eat it like wine, and it tastes great.
