Lupin Free Herb Roasting Rub
Store-bought spice blends and seasoning packets can be surprisingly tricky territory, since fillers and anti-caking agents sometimes sneak in ingredients that don't belong on a restricted plate. This homemade rub sidesteps all of that by using nothing but pure dried herbs and spices you can verify yourself. Rosemary, thyme, oregano, and parsley form a fragrant, earthy backbone, while turmeric and ginger add warmth and a subtle golden hue that looks gorgeous on roasted meat or vegetables. A hit of lemon zest brightens everything up, and the optional cayenne gives it just enough kick to keep things interesting. Press it generously onto chicken, fish, pork, or a tray of root vegetables before roasting and the result is deeply savory with a beautifully caramelized crust. It comes together in minutes and keeps for up to three months in an airtight jar, so you can batch it once and reach for it all season long.
