Paula Deen's come up with a mix of spices she calls her HOUSE SEASONING...
only this versatile mix has been around long before Ms. Deen came onto the cooking scene.
Here's the basic recipe:
HOUSE SEASONING
1 cup salt
1/4 cup pepper
1/4 cup garlic powder
For best flavor, use sea salt* and fresh-ground pepper)
*Unless you're allergic to it...like I am. Then try kosher salt, if you like the 'crusty' look.
That's it! Mix the three together and store in a shaker. Keep it on the back of your stove for seasoning meats and veggie mixes.
Once you've got the basic mix down, then consider adding other ingredients:
*parmesan cheese
*onion powder
*marjoram*
*basil*
*rosemary*
* parsley*
*dried and crushed. Or substitute your favorite savory herb
Start with a few tablespoonfuls, adding up to 1/4 cup -- taste as needed.
A pretty jar of this mix, tied with ribbon and a sprig of fresh herb, makes a nice hostess gift. (Or maybe part of a gift basket for Mom!)
