Spread another pound of refined sugar over the angelica, set the stems on glass plates, and let them dry in a warm place. Violets and rose petals are even easier to candy. Brush a little egg white all over each flower and dip it in superfine or powdered sugar. Let the sugar dry into a clear coating, and store in an airtight container. You can dry herbs in salt and use the flavored salt to season your foods.
Salt draws moisture from herbs and at the same time absorbs some of their essential oils.
Here is how you dry herbs in salt. Harvest the herbs you want to use, either a single type or a blend of complementary herbs. Wash them and dry them well with a thick towel. Then remove any thick stems or inedible parts. Chop the herbs up finely if you intend to use the salt and herb blend directly for seasoning.
