Vegetarian Italian Herb & Spice Rub
This fragrant spice blend is the kind of pantry staple that quietly transforms everything it touches. Smoky paprika, earthy turmeric, and a trio of classic Italian herbs come together in a blend that smells incredible the moment you open the jar. It works beautifully as a dry rub for roasted vegetables, a seasoning for pasta sauces, or stirred into olive oil for a quick dipping situation. The optional red pepper flakes let you dial the heat up or down depending on who's at the table. Everything here is pure, plant-based, and shelf-stable — no fillers, no mystery ingredients, just bold flavor you mixed yourself. A single batch keeps for up to six months, so you can make it once and reach for it all season long.
