  • Make It Your Own: Feel free to experiment with other herbs, like dill or oregano, to suit your flavor preferences. This recipe is a perfect base to create your own signature seasoning blend.
  • No Additives: Unlike store-bought mixes, this homemade version has no artificial preservatives or flavor enhancers, making it a cleaner option for all your cooking.
