Saw this on Michael Ruhlman's blog. This was the contest winner for the best use of veal stock. There were some other very interesting recipes as well.

What a brilliant freakin' idea!!! This could be incredible for so many things. Thank you for sharing, it's bookmarked so I can go back and try this.

I LOVE this! Summer Project!!!!! I've never made veal stock....never ate veal, actually. (Can't get past that baby calf thing.) ANYWAY, I think I could deal with making the stock and the salt, though. I figure, if I LOVE the flavor, I'll be able to get past the baby calf thing to eat the meat. (Sad logic, but maybe it'll work...LOL!)
And I'm sooooo wanting to make me some SP chips! I love the fries, so I KNOW I'd love the chips! Even William wanted to see the recipe for the chips! He may actually beat me to making them!

Super cool for veal, but oh my the possibilities. The first one that comes to mind of course is bacon, can you imagine being able to use homemade bacon salt to get bacon flavor in salads, eggs, etc? Also herbs and citrus, the possibilities are endless. I think if you are going to have the oven on for one, might as well do a whole bunch of different kinds at one time, maybe smaller amounts to try to see it they work first.

Doesn't it just sound like sooooo much fun! The mind just wants to be left alone to play with ideas!

Thanks everybody. I'm thinking it will be a fun thing to try.
CG, I love your idea for bacon salt. BTW, if anyone is interested, Ruhlman also had an interesting article about the use of nitrates in bacon. I never knew nitrates came from plants...
