Today, I want to share with you one of my favorite recipes, my own dry seasoning. I have been cooking since I was a little girl. It is not a burden for me, but rather a time to relax, be creative and forget about the stress of the day. The one thing that I learned early on in my life was that food tastes better when is seasoned well. That is the reason why I am bold when it comes to marinates, seasonings and salad dressing, among other things. I occasionally use salt and pepper but that is on filet mignon and grill steaks. This is one of my favorite seasoning combinations. Enjoy it. Ingredients: In a glass jar with a lid mix the following spices: 1 tsp. ground pepper 1 tsp. cumin 1 tsp. sweet paprika 1 tsp. ground dry rosemary 1 tsp. dry thyme 1 tsp. dry oregano 1 tsp. onion powder 1 tsp. Old Bay Seasoning ½ tsp. chili powder ½ tsp. turmeric powder 1 tsp. chopped dry basil leaves 1 tbsp. garlic powder 1 tbsp. kosher salt How to use it with Chicken, Meat, Pork and Seafood: Clean well removing all visible fat and pat dry with paper towel. Move to a glass container, add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and rub well with my dry rub.
