Brazil Nut Free Herb Roasting Rub
This fragrant spice blend brings together rosemary, thyme, oregano, and parsley alongside warming turmeric and ginger, bright lemon zest, and a gentle kick of cayenne for a rub that genuinely elevates whatever it touches. It works beautifully on chicken, fish, pork, or a tray of roasted vegetables — basically anything that could use a serious flavor upgrade. Store-bought seasoning blends can be a minefield when you're avoiding specific tree nuts, since shared facilities and vague labeling make it hard to know exactly what's in the jar. Making your own from scratch means you know every single ingredient by name, and this one keeps for up to three months in an airtight container so you're always ready to go. Just press a tablespoon or two firmly onto your protein or veggies before roasting or grilling, and the herbs and spices form a gorgeous, aromatic crust. It's the kind of pantry staple that quietly makes you a better cook.
