Coconut Free Creole Herb & Turmeric Seasoning
Spice blends from the store can be a minefield of mystery fillers, anti-caking agents, and surprise additives — but this homemade Creole-inspired mix keeps things refreshingly straightforward. Every ingredient earns its place, from the warm depth of turmeric and ginger to the herby backbone of oregano, thyme, and basil. A whisper of Ceylon cinnamon ties it all together without tipping into sweetness, giving the blend a complexity that store-bought versions rarely achieve. The whole thing comes together in minutes with just a bowl and a spoon, then stores beautifully in a sealed jar for up to six months. Rub it on chicken, stir it into rice, or use it to season roasted vegetables — it punches well above its weight in almost any savory application. Because you're building it from scratch with single-ingredient spices, there's no guesswork about what's actually inside.
