Morphology
The phrase is directly compositional: 'seasoned' (treated with seasonings, i.e. herbs/spices) modifies 'salt', so the meaning is simply 'salt that has been flavored or mixed with seasonings.' This follows a common culinary naming pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words can readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
The noun seasoned salt comes from the simple, literal idea of putting seasoned ingredients like herbs and spices into salt, so it means a salt 'to add flavor' to food.
