1c. sea salt

Stir the Tabasco and the salt together thoroughly. Spread it out into a thin layer on a dry baking sheet and set in the sun for 1 to 2 days, until dry.

If you need it a little sooner, you can dry it in a dehydrator, or in an oven set at 100°F overnight, until dry. When completely dry, break up any of the clumps with your fingers or a fork, and transfer it to an airtight container.
