This month’s Homemade Homemaking recipe for garlic salt is SO easy that I’m almost embarrassed to post it.
But here goes…
You know how I love to figure out ways to make my own spice mixes–like homemade taco seasoning and homemade pumpkin pie spice?
Well…this is even more simple than those!
Without further ado, here’s the recipe:
Ingredients
- garlic powder
- salt










Hi, I grow my own garlic and make my own garlic salt and onion salt too. But I find it is hard to keep it from caking in the seasoning jar. Any help on this would be delightful. I am so frustrated about it.
Do you use sea salt? I think the sea salt is what really helps mine from caking. I’ve never made onion salt, though. I only make up a small portion at a time as well…no more than what fills a baby food jar. Hope that helps!
I keep my garlic and onion salt in the refrigerate. It doesn’t cake anymore.
oops, refrigerator I meant.
Great idea!
My mom always put some dry white rice in with the seasonings to absorb moisture (although that only works if you have a small-holed shaker on the top that won’t let the rice through)!
I love to put some dried parsley in garlic salt as well. The anti caking thing is also a problem with other spice mixes…especially ones that contain onion powder.
