Virgin Islands Spiced Salt

This recipe comes to us courtesy of Jill Norman's fabulous spice book, "Herbs and Spices: The Cook's Reference." It's the best book on spices and herbs we've seen yet, and it has great recipes as well. The Virgin Islands were once an important stop for the British Royal Navy, and salt-based curing and seasoning is still practiced there, while salt is harvested at Salt Island in the British Islands.
