Prep Time5

Ingredients

2 tbsp basil - dried

1 tbsp thyme - dried

1 tsp parsley - dried
1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

Gather your ingredients and put everything in a clean, dry bowl. Mix together thoroughly.
2 tbsp oregano, 2 tbsp basil, 1 tbsp thyme, 1 tbsp rosemary, 1 tsp parsley, 1 tsp garlic powder
Transfer the seasoning mix to a clean dry jar with a lid that fits tightly. If you have a jam funnel, this will help to avoid any spillage.
Seal and store in a cool, dark place, ready to use to perk up a dull pizza, or add to homemade crusts. Stir or shake before use, as the contents may settle.

Notes

Storage

Store your homemade Italian seasoning sealed in an airtight jar in a cool, dark cupboard.

Your ‘best before’ date will be the shortest date of out of all the herbs and spices you used, so make a note of this.

Although ‘best before’ is a guide, it doesn’t mean you have to throw your mix away. If you keep it a long time, the flavour fades, so just use a little more.

Hints and tips

Label the jar with the shortest date from the ingredients

Shake the jar before using as the contents can settle

Crush the the long pine needle like rosemary between your fingers before adding to the mixture.

Variations

Try some different herbs such as marjoram, sage, a little onion powder or even some dried coriander.

Add a little chilli for a hint of heat.

Add sea salt and freshly ground black pepper for an all in one seasoning.
