What Is Seasoned Salt?

If you are familiar with Lawry’s seasoned salt or other salts like garlic salt, celery salt you would not be new to seasoned salt.

Seasoned salt also called as seasoning salt is a blend of herbs, spices, salt and one other ingredient would be monosodium glucamate (MSG). This is what you will find in store bought seasoned salt. The salt is used to add flavor to dish before or after cooking.

It’s easy to make your own version of salt that will elevate the flavor of any dish by simply blending together different spices and herbs to table salt.

Basic seasoned salt starts with salt, garlic powder and onion powder. Then on you can add in other spices like cayenne pepper, smoked sweet paprika, ground pepper, Italian seasoning, dried herbs like oregano, thyme or rosemary for different styles of cooking.

What’s In Seasoned Salt?

The base of any seasoned salt is table salt along with garlic powder and onion powder. From there on you can choose to add in your salt depending on your taste or depending on different styles of cooking.

This recipe uses 6 basic pantry staples to make all-purpose seasoned salt.

How to Make Seasoned Salt?

 It’s super simple to make. Simply blend in all the spices, herbs and salt together.

Jo’s-Tip: Use spices with almost same texture, ground fine. Like for instance use garlic granules (fine granules), granulated onion (instead of super fine onion powder), use pepper that is ground super fine.

It gives a consistent texture to the salt. Looks pretty as well right with all those uniform granules! Very crucial to evenly season the dish.  Easy to pick with your fingers and sprinkle.

Helpful Tip: To ensure you grind pepper fine, use mortal and pestle. Ground pepper from hand blender would be coarsely ground and it separates from rest of the spices.

Choose course garlic powder and coarse onion powder instead of super fine spice powders.

Store in air tight containers and use it on all dishes.

How Long Can I Store Seasoning Salt?
