HERBALIST'S ✿ NOTES

about the botanicals

Close-up of garlic bulbs with green stems on a textured surface

ALLIUM SATIVUM

garlic

Powerful and pungent, garlic is celebrated not just for flavor but for health-promoting properties. It's rich in organosulfur compounds, such as allicin, that have been studied for antimicrobial and immune-supportive effects. It also supports cardiovascular health by modestly helping to maintain healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels.*

Close-up of tulsi plants in bloom with a blurred background

Ocimum africanum

tulsi

Tulsi, often called holy basil, has long been revered in Ayurveda as an adaptogen that helps the body find balance and ease stress. And modern research supports what tradition has always known, that tulsi may help reduce inflammation, support healthy blood sugar, and promote overall calm and resilience.*

Close-up of fuzzy tomato leaves

Solanum lycopersicum

tomato leaf

Tomato leaf adds a unique green, herbaceous layer and flirty complexity to the blend. Used in small amounts, the leaves carry the green, peppery scent of the tomato vine, which is why Italian cooks sometimes drop one into a simmering sauce.

FAQs

How do I use this finishing salt? What does Night Shade pair well with?

Finish dishes with a sprinkle just before serving and use in any way you'd normally use garlic salt. This spunky garlic herb salt goes great on:

  • Freshly sliced tomatoes, blistered cherry tomatoes
  • Sliced cucumbers or radishes with butter
  • Seared steak, grilled meats & fish, crispy tofu
  • Soft scrambled or sunny-side up eggs
  • Pasta tossed with olive oil, garlic, and greens
  • Savory oatmeal or grain bowls
  • Fresh or grilled corn on the cob
  • Ricotta or labneh on sourdough toast

Can I cook with it or just use it as a finishing touch?

It shines brightest as a finishing touch, but you can absolutely cook with it for added depth of flavor.

How long does it last?

Unrefined salts are naturally shelf-stable; for best flavor, enjoy within 1 year.

Are there any allergens?

Night Shade contains garlic (an allium) and tomato leaf (a member of the nightshade family), so please keep that in mind if you have sensitivities.
