My Homemade Zesty Italian Seasoning Mix is the perfect spice blend to use on all your favorite recipes. With a mix of some classic Italian herbs such as oregano and basil, this spice mixture gets its zing from sweet paprika, garlic and onion powder.
1. Using a measuring spoon, gather all the herbs and spices to a small bowl.
2. Combine with a small whisk or other utensil. 3. Store in a glass airtight jar with a lid at room temperature. Store homemade seasonings in your kitchen cabinet for up to 6 months.
Making spice blends at home are simple. The best thing you can do is make sure you are using fresh spices. Always check the expiration date and make sure spices are always stored properly in your spice cabinet and not near alot of heat.
Tips: Use this zesty spice on garlic bread- slather butter and sprinkle on top and bake. Use it in salad dressings along with extra-virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar, or as a dry rub to meats like salmon, sheet pan chicken thighs, beef and pork. Add a dash to the top of cheesy dishes like fettuccine Alfredo, mac and cheese or a grilled cheese sandwich.
