This jalapeno salt recipe will do just that. With simple ingredients it\u2019s full of healthy minerals and the perfect seasoning for meats, veggies, or even fruit.<\/p>\n<p>You can easily control the spice level here and either use a little or a lot on your foods. Even my older kids like sprinkling some on their meals.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make-jalapeno-salt\">How to Make Jalapeno Salt<\/h2>\n<p>This homemade jalapeno salt is exactly what it sounds like: mineral-rich salt blended with dried jalape\u00f1os for a simple but flavorful seasoning. It\u2019s one of those small kitchen upgrades that makes everyday meals feel special without adding extra work.<\/p>\n<p>The process is surprisingly straightforward. Slice the peppers, dry them completely until they\u2019re brittle, then blend with salt until finely ground. That\u2019s it. The salt pulls the flavor from the jalapenos and also helps keep the peppers dry.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-homemade-jalapeno-salt-seasoning\">Homemade Jalapeno Salt Seasoning<\/h2>\n<p>Jalapeno seasoning is like an all-purpose finishing salt with a kick. I love it sprinkled over grilled chicken, roasted vegetables, scrambled eggs, or sliced avocado. It\u2019s also delicious on fresh fruit like mango or watermelon if you like that sweet-and-spicy combination.<\/p>\n<p>You can try it for margaritas too. If you\u2019re the type <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/recipes\/drinks\/margarita-recipe\/\">who likes margaritas<\/a>, it makes a great rim salt before serving. You can also stir a small amount into soups or taco meat for an easy flavor boost without needing multiple spices.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The nice thing about homemade jalapeno salt is that it\u2019s easy to be in control. For a milder blend, remove the seeds and membranes before drying the peppers. If you prefer more heat, keep them in.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And if you\u2019re sensitive to spice, wear a mask while blending since the fine jalape\u00f1o dust can be surprisingly strong. I also recommend wearing gloves when cutting up the peppers! The oils from the hot peppers can quickly start to burn your hands. Also, don\u2019t touch your eyes when cutting. That\u2019s never a fun thing to experience!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re using Celtic sea salt, keep in mind that it\u2019s naturally more moist than other mineral salts. If it feels damp, spread it on a baking sheet to air dry for several hours or warm it gently in the oven on the lowest setting for 10\u201315 minutes before blending. Excess moisture can lead to clumping and shorten shelf life.<\/p>\n<p>Jalapeno salt is an easy and delicious way to turn up the heat on your favorite foods!<\/p>\n<div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-497061\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"497061\" data-servings=\"144\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-wm\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-intro\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-normal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"attachment-150x150 size-150x150\" alt=\"Jalapeno salt recipe, how to make jalapeno salt, homemade jalapeno salt Jalapeno salt seasoning, for margaritas, smoked jalapeno salt\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Homemade-Jalapeno-Salt-4-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Homemade-Jalapeno-Salt-4-500x500.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" data-pin-nopin=\"nopin\" src=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/recipes\/jalapeno-salt\/?tp_image_id=497075\"\/><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Jalapeno Salt<\/h2>\n<p>\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"0\" height=\"0\" style=\"display:block;width:0px;height:0px\"><defs><lineargradient id=\"wprm-recipe-user-rating-0-33\"><stop offset=\"0%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"33%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"33%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><stop offset=\"100%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><\/lineargradient><\/defs><defs><lineargradient id=\"wprm-recipe-user-rating-0-50\"><stop offset=\"0%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"50%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"50%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><stop offset=\"100%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><\/lineargradient><\/defs><defs><lineargradient id=\"wprm-recipe-user-rating-0-66\"><stop offset=\"0%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"66%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"66%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><stop offset=\"100%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><\/lineargradient><\/defs><\/svg><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"display: block;\">Jalapeno salt is a delicious spicy seasoning that adds a flavorful kick to meat, veggies, and even fruits like watermelon and mango. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-body\">\n<div id=\"recipe-497061-instructions\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions-container wprm-recipe-497061-instructions-container wprm-block-text-normal\" data-recipe=\"497061\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-group\">\n<ul class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions\">\n<li id=\"wprm-recipe-497061-step-0-0\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n<p>Wash and dice fresh jalape\u00f1os.
