Seasonings

Creole Seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons Onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons Garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons Dried Oregano Leaves
  • 2 tablespoons Sweet basil, dried
  • 1 tablespoon Thyme, dried
  • 1 tablespoon Black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon White pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Celery seed
  • 5 tablespoon Paprika Sweet

    • A very versatile seasoning blend. Use this as a base seasoning, and build upon it in your dish.

    Some versions of Creoleseasoning blend contain salt -- I don'tdo that, because I like to control saltcontent separately. If you insist on this blend being salty, á la Tony Chachere's "when it's salty enough, it's perfectly seasoned!" rationale, start with 2 tablespoons salt in the blend, increasing up to 4 tablespoons depending on your sodium tolerance level.

    Combine in food processor and pulse until well-blended, ormix thoroughly in a large bowl. The recipe doubles or triples well. Give lots of it away as gifts to your family and friends.
