1 c Vegetable flakes (carrot,
- onion, etc. as for veg soup
- without the soup mix)
4 ts Black peppercorns
4 t Sweet paprika
4 t Parsley
4 t Herbes fines
1 T Lemon peel or orange peel,
- dried
1 T Citric acid powder
1 ts Garlic powder
1/4 ts Celery seeds
1 Sundried tomatoes (dry, not
- in oil!), cut into slivers
Use a coffee or spice mill to grind up everything that is not already
ground to a fine grain texture.
Hint: Do the celery seeds with something heavier to get them to
pulverize.
Hint: You will get better results if you undergrind, sieve, and
regrind the coarsest stuff instead of pulverizing everything into
dust in an attempt to get the big chunks out ;-)
This is the general table shake--you can substitute up to 2 tb of
your favorite dried herbs for the herbes fines. (e.g. oregano,
basil, etc.)
In the not too distant past, someone requested a Mrs. Dash home-brew.
Just tried this today, and found it works out quite nicely.
