Notes
- How to use: As a dry rub for chicken, steak, pork, shrimp, salmon, or any other meat or fish. Rub generously all over. Mix a teaspoon into meatballs or burgers. Use to season potatoes such as homemade fries or roast potatoes. Sprinkle over roasted or vegetables. Stir a teaspoon or more into soups, casseroles and stews.
- Make into a paste to massage into meat by adding 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and a teaspoon of brown sugar or honey if you like. Try this on pork, salmon or make this air fryer rotisserie chicken if you have an air fryer!
- To make into a marinade, stir about half of the seasoning into a quarter cup of olive oil, half a cup of Greek yogurt and the juice of half a lemon. Use to marinate up to 2 pounds (1 kilo) of meat or fish.
- Variations: Add a pinch of chili flakes or red pepper flakes for a little heat, or half a teaspoon of cinnamon for sweetness. Substitute in half a teaspoon to a teaspoon of any other herbs and spices you have or like, such as dill, tarragon, mint, cilantro (coriander). For pork, try a large pinch of fennel seeds. For salmon, add extra dill and parsley.
- How much to use: Use around 1 tablespoon of the seasoning per 2 pounds (1 kilo) of meat or fish, or to taste. There are no rules, really. Just rub or sprinkle to taste.
