Mushroom Free Italian Herb & Spice Rub
This fragrant blend brings together the best of the Mediterranean spice cabinet in one simple, shake-and-go mix. Oregano, basil, rosemary, and thyme form a classic herbal backbone, while smoked paprika adds a subtle depth and turmeric gives the rub a gorgeous golden hue. A hit of garlic powder and cracked black pepper round everything out, with optional red pepper flakes for anyone who likes a little heat. Many store-bought seasoning blends sneak in dried mushroom powder or umami-boosting fungi extracts as flavor enhancers, so making your own from scratch is the smartest way to stay in control of exactly what goes on your food. Stir it together in minutes, pour it into a jar, and it keeps for up to six months — meaning you can batch it out and have bold, reliable flavor on hand whenever you need it. Use it as a dry rub for chicken or pork, stir it into olive oil for a quick marinade, or dust it over roasted vegetables for an instant upgrade.
