Pistachio Free Italian Herb Blend

Homemade spice blends are one of those small kitchen wins that make everything taste noticeably better, and this Italian herb mix is no exception. Oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, and marjoram come together in a ratio that's deeply aromatic and endlessly versatile — think pasta sauces, roasted vegetables, grilled chicken, or a quick drizzle of olive oil for dipping bread. The one hands-on step — crumbling the dried rosemary between your fingers — makes a real difference, breaking those stiff needles down so the blend measures cleanly and distributes evenly in whatever you're cooking. Store-bought Italian seasoning can be a gamble when you're avoiding cross-contact with tree nuts, since shared processing facilities are common and labels aren't always transparent. Mixing your own from individual dried herbs puts you in complete control of every ingredient in the jar. Optional sage adds a slightly earthy, woodsy note, while a pinch of red pepper flakes gives the blend a gentle kick if you like a little heat. Stored in an airtight jar away from light and heat, this blend stays fresh and fragrant for up to six months — plenty of time to work it into your regular cooking rotation.
