Gelatin Free Herb Roasting Rub
A fragrant blend of rosemary, thyme, oregano, and parsley forms the backbone of this all-purpose rub, while turmeric, ginger, and a hint of lemon zest give it a warmth and brightness that elevate just about anything you put it on. The optional cayenne adds a gentle kick if you want it, but the blend is deeply satisfying even without it. Many store-bought seasoning blends and spice packets sneak in unexpected additives — including fillers and stabilizers derived from animal collagen — so mixing your own from scratch is the smartest move for keeping things clean and simple. Every ingredient here is a straightforward pantry staple, so you know exactly what's going on your food. Just stir everything together, press it firmly onto chicken, fish, pork, or vegetables, and let the oven or grill do the rest. It keeps for up to three months in an airtight jar, which means you can batch it once and reach for it all season long.
