Capsaicin Free Gluten Free Italian Seasoning
Building your own Italian seasoning blend from scratch is one of those small kitchen moves that pays off every single time you reach for it. Store-bought versions can be sneaky — some blends include fillers, anti-caking agents, or unexpected heat sources that make them a gamble for anyone avoiding capsaicin. This homemade version keeps things clean and straightforward, layering oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, and marjoram into a fragrant, well-rounded blend you can actually trust. The red pepper flakes listed are entirely optional, so you stay in full control — just leave them out and you have a completely heat-free mix. It's also naturally gluten free, since every ingredient here is a pure dried herb with nothing hidden in the label. A batch takes just minutes to stir together and keeps for up to six months in an airtight jar, meaning you'll have a reliable, aromatic seasoning on hand for pasta sauces, roasted vegetables, marinades, and more.
