Seasoned Salt combines salt with a perfectly flavorful blend of herbs and spices. It is a quick and convenient way to season meats, vegetables, eggs, and everyday dishes with one quick shake.
What is Seasoned Salt?
Seasoned salt (sometimes called seasoning salt) typically includes salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. From there, you can add other ingredients to suit your taste.
- Flavor: This salt is my go-to and has the perfect combination of savory, slightly sweet, and smoky flavors
- Skill Level: No special tools or skills are needed for this DIY seasoned salt.
- Serving Suggestions: This salt can be used in a variety of recipes. Sprinkle seasoned salt on eggs, grilled zucchini, salad dressings, chicken breasts (or baked chicken thighs), or any savory dish that needs salt and seasoning. You can add it before cooking or after (or both)!
How to Make Seasoned Salt
This couldn’t be easier; simply combine all of the ingredients in a bowl until well mixed.
- Salt: For the best results, use a finer sized grains of salt. It will season more evenly and mix better with the spice additions. Make sure to use a thinner-grain pepper so it mixes in well!
- Seasonings: Use sweet paprika for added warmth and color. Be sure to use garlic powder and not garlic salt, since the salt has already been added. Don’t forget the sugar, as this rounds out the flavor of the spices.
Favorite Variations
Whatever you are adding, just ensure the size of each ingredient is roughly the same for even distribution. To achieve this, use a spice grinder or a mortar and pestle before adding.
- For Tex-Mex Seasoned Salt: Salt, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, cumin, ground red pepper
- For Mediterranean Seasoned Salt: Combine salt, garlic, and onion powders with ground rosemary and basil.
- For an Italian seasoned salt recipe: Add in basil and oregano. I love adding this to Italian dressing!
Storing Your Seasoning Salt
Store seasoned salt in a labeled spice jar in a cool, dry cupboard for up to 6 months. Keep it away from moisture so it stays loose and fresh. If it clumps, give it a shake or break it up with a spoon.
