Italian Seasoning Mix
"A mildly flavored seasoning that is a tasteful blend of dried herbs and spices is the Italian seasoning mix. If you are like me, there are certain spices and flavorings that you reach for quite often. This is one of those flavors that our family loves. The perfect blend of spices to add to your soups, stews and marinades. I love to have various homemade spice mixes at on hand at home. When cooking, it takes time to open and measure lots of spices for a recipe. Years ago, before I took the time to learn how to make my own seasoning mixes, I would often reach for a packet of pre-mixed store-bought seasoning. That was a great time-saver. However, I have found through the years, that I like to create spice mixes to my family’s taste preferences. Therefore, learning how to make my own seasonings is essential. "
