Savory Spice Blend Seasoning

Savory Spice Blend Seasoning

This simple and delicious Savory Spice Blend Seasoning is perfect to keep on hand to add flavor to dishes in place of salt. It livens up even the blandest recipes.

Prep Time 5 minutes

Total Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons dry mustard (mustard powder)
2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds

Instructions

First, make sure that all of the ingredients to be used are the dried versions. An example of this is dried parsley flakes and not fresh parsley.
Combine all of the ingredients in a spice grinder or blender and pulverize the dried herbs and spices.
Recipe makes 1/2 cup which is 24 teaspoons.
Transfer the blend into a shaker bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid. I personally like this spice shaker by OXO because the lid has two settings for coarse and fine, and it twists shut to seal for freshness. Store in a cool, dry place.

Notes
