Capsaicin Free Herbes de Provence
Making your own spice blend at home is one of those small kitchen moves that pays off every single time you reach for it. This fragrant mix of thyme, rosemary, savory, marjoram, oregano, lavender flowers, and optional fennel seeds captures the sun-soaked, herbaceous spirit of southern French cooking in a single jar. For anyone avoiding capsaicin, store-bought seasoning blends can be a minefield — many contain hidden chili powders, paprika, or pepper that sneak in under vague "spices" labels. This blend keeps things beautifully clean, relying entirely on aromatic herbs that deliver bold, complex flavor without any heat. The lavender adds a subtle floral note that makes it feel genuinely special, while the savory and rosemary give it that rustic, earthy backbone. Stir it together in minutes, seal it up, and you've got a reliable, heat-free seasoning ready to go for roasted vegetables, grilled meats, or a simple olive oil dip for bread.
