Oats Free Italian Herb Blend
A fragrant mix of Mediterranean herbs, this blend brings the soul of Italian cooking into a single jar you can reach for again and again. Oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, and marjoram come together in balanced proportions, with optional sage for earthiness and red pepper flakes if you like a little heat. The trick of crumbling the rosemary by hand before mixing might seem small, but it makes a real difference — no poky needles, just even, aromatic pieces that distribute beautifully through any dish. Store-bought seasoning blends can be surprisingly tricky territory, since shared production lines sometimes introduce unexpected ingredients, so making your own puts you fully in control of what goes into the jar. Stir it into pasta sauce, rub it onto roasted vegetables, or shake it over focaccia dough before it hits the oven. Stored in an airtight container away from heat and light, it stays vibrant for up to six months — which means one quick batch keeps your kitchen stocked for a long time.
