SAVORY SEASONING

Savory Seasoning image

This recipe has been such a staple in my kitchen that I think of it as one would with salt and pepper. I use to use it exclusively on meats, but now that I rarely eat meat, I thought I would try on other things...and it was wonderful. The original recipe came from a writer with the first name of Francine..so long ago that I forgot the last name.

Yield 1/2 cup

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 tablespoons ground ginger
3 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon ground cloves
4 tablespoons onion powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon chili powder (may use more)
1 1/2-2 teaspoons nutmeg, fresh grated
2 tablespoons dried sage, finely crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme, finely crushed
1 teaspoon sea salt (optional)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, finely ground (optional)

Steps:

Combine everything together in a container with a tight lid. I prefer a glass jar as I feel the potency remains longer then in plastic.
Shake or stir well. Store in cool area. Do Not Refrigerate!
This tends to settle, so stir well before using.
I love using this when I'm saute onions for the base of a soup or stew -- just about any kind except lamb.
It also makes a different rub for chicken.
