Celery Salt

Description:

Celery salt combines salinity with a green vegetal aroma. It is especially good on a rim or in savory drinks where plain salt would feel too simple. Salty, spicy, and umami additions season the drink. Their job is to sharpen flavor and lengthen the finish without pushing the cocktail into cold-sauce territory. Add these ingredients in stages: start below the recipe amount, taste, then make the final adjustment. Heat, salt, and umami build faster than they seem.
