Rev. Peanut's Herbie's Salt & Pepper (Gotta start somewhere)...

Herbies Salt & Pepper:

Necessary Items:

7 Leaves of sage

3 sprigs of rosemary

5 sprigs of thyme

Fuck all parsley. This is not a song. It's a recipe. No strawberries either. Fair or not, as it may be.

A few ripe chillies (I use about 10 Preuvian Purple in this instance)

3 tablespoons of black peppercorns

Coarse sea salt

How to do it:

Remove the leaves from the thyme and rosemary. Chuck the stems on the compost heap or the bbq. Mmmmmmmmmmmm. Bbq.

Finely chop the chillies and the sage, rosemary and thyme leaves.

Crush the black peppercorns using a pestle and mortar. Or a black peppercorn crusher.

Mix ‘em all together and put in a small glass jar with an air tight lid.

Top the jar up with the salt, leaving about 1cm gap at the top.

Put the lid on tight and shake that mother. Shake it like a Polaroid picture until everything is combined, nice and crisp and even.

Leave it for about a week and then use it as you would use salt and pepper. That is, after all, what it is. With benefits. Also saves you about 4 million quid on the store bought equivalent...
