What spice or spice blend is your favorite?

I can't wait for these answers!

Everyone has their favorite blend or favorite simple herb, but if I had to choose it would always be this classic French seasoning! It’s so much fun to blend and it never comes out the same, especially when you are growing your own herbs!

Sel Fou is a classic seasoning salt and it is my understanding that every French woman has a recipe that is very much a reflection of her own cooking style. It's very simple to make. This is my personal recipe! Yours might be different! 

You will need:

3 tablespoons of fine sea salt

1/2 tablespoon of cornstarch

1/2 tablespoon of confectioners sugar

1 tablespoon of powdered horseradish

1 tablespoon of garlic powder

1 tablespoon of onion salt (do not use shallot salt- too moist)

1 tablespoon of dried thyme

1 tablespoon of dried marjoram

1/2 tablespoon of dried dill

1/2 tablespoon of dried chives

That's it! I put all of it into a jar and shake it well and then whisk it with a fork. You must use the cornstarch and the sugar because it works as a stabilizer, keeping everything dry and mixed well. Decant it into a salt pig or a covered jar and keep it by your stove. This is a wonderful secret ingredient. I use it in stews , soups and braises of all kinds and it will turn an omelet into a gourmet meal. Sprinkled onto a salad which has been dressed with a simple oil and vinegar dressing...Unbelievable!  Do yourself a favor and make some.  If you come up with a different mixture , please share your creation with me!

You’re next! What is your favorite seasoning? If you want to share recipes that would be great too!
