Ingredients
Herbs and Spices
- 3 tablespoon dried oregano
- 3 tablespoon dried basil
- 2 tablespoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoon dried marjoram
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon dried sage
- 2 teaspoon dried cilantro (optional, not authentically Italian)
- 1 teaspoon dried chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Combine - Add all ingredients to a small bowl. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of herbs and spices for a consistent seasoning blend.
- Store - Transfer the mixed seasoning into an airtight jar or container. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The blend can be kept fresh for up to 6 months, maintaining its flavor and aroma.
Notes
- Optional ingredients like dried cilantro and chili flakes add unique flavors but are not traditional in classic Italian seasoning.
- Use this seasoning blend to enhance the taste of pasta sauces, roasted vegetables, grilled meats, and salad dressings.
- To retain the highest potency of flavor, store the blend in a dark, cool cupboard or pantry.
- Shake or stir the jar before each use to redistribute settled herbs.
