When it comes to Italian food it's all about the seasoning... and this is our go to blend. Made from a mixture of dried oregano, basil, rosemary, garlic, marjoram, sage, and thyme, it adds the perfect pop of flavor to all your favorite Italian dishes!
Everyone LOVES Italian food... and really... what's not to love? You have your choice of everything from pizza to pasta to delicious sandwiches and calzones. It's enough to make you hungry just thinking about it!
It's one of our favorite types of food, and if there's one thing I've come to realize, it's that the seasoning is EVERYTHING.
Of course, I love using fresh herbs and spices in my cooking, but that's not always practical. Which is precisely where a good dried seasoning blend comes in. This Italian Seasoning is the perfect combination of all the flavors that make your favorite Italian dishes SO delicious.
Sure, you can buy a pre-made mixture at the grocery store, but the nice thing about making your own is that you get to pick and choose exactly what to put in it. And best of all, you probably already have most of the ingredients on hand!
