Want some punch to your otherwise bland dishes that just need a little extra something? My Green Heat seasoning blend is just the thing you need.
This seasoning is great for things like potatoes that are good on their own, but just need a little something extra. I suggest making a batch of this and keeping it on hand at all times.
Why Use Freeze Dried Seasonings?
You could use just regular dried seasonings for this recipe, but the fact of it is that freeze dried herbs retain a lot more of their flavor than their traditionally heat dried relatives. Freeze drying preserves the flavors better and will give you a much better tasting seasoning. You can cheap out and get the standard herbs, but I don’t suggest it.
Use Good Salt For The Best Results
If you look at the resource links below, the salt link will take you to the Redmond salt’s listing for Kosher salt. You may think that all salt is the same, but it is not. Redmond salt is mined here in the USA, Unlike other sea salts, Real Salt is never heat processed, never stripped of its natural components, and contains no additives. Many salts contain anti-caking agents and even dextrose, but we bring it to you the way nature created it, with nothing more and nothing less. Real Salt by Redmond is an unrefined ancient salt with a full complement of good for you trace minerals.
