I’m guessing that most, if not all of you, have
some form of seasoned salt in your pantry.
The bottle may be full, half full, or nearly empty, but I can pretty
much guarantee you all the same thing. It’s
probably insipid. Go ahead, get the
bottle, sprinkle a little bit into the palm of your hand, and taste it. Other than salt can you discern any other
flavor? No? Well, this can mean one of two things, a) it
is probably well past its prime, or, b) it never had any taste in the first
place. In order to avoid both of these
things, you really need to make your own.
I did a taste test with one of my sons.
I had him first taste the major brand, ho hum, and then taste the
seasoned salt that I made. His eyes
widened and he said, “That is GOOD!” It is.
It’s good, it’s easy, it’s flavorful, and it makes such a small amount
that you’ll run out before the flavor does.
The photo above gives the proportions. Just whisk this together and store in one of
the darling little spring-top jars that you’ve been collecting over the
years. Smack on a label, and you’ll be
thanking me forever. Oh, and you might
want to pin this.

I remember doing this taste test. It is good and I think I will have to make some for myself soon. Glad you posted this, but I see I will need to do some spice shopping.
Why is the onion powder listed twice? Should one of them be garlic powder?
Thanks,
Silvia
Great catch, Silvia! I'll change the picture as soon as I'm able. Thank you for pointing this out.
This is great! I bet it is so much better than the bottle sitting too long in the cabinet! Thanks for sharing.
I really need to do this, Pattie. Thanks for reminding me!
