Italian Herb Blend (Italian)
You’ll notice that Western Europeans don’t use many spices in their recipes. But they do make use of herbs. We urge using fresh herbs when possible but sometimes you might not have a batch of chervil sitting around so the next best thing is using one our herb blends. Our Italian herb blend is a ground dry mixture of the most used herbs in Italian cuisine.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp cilantro (leaves)
- 1 tbsp marjoram
- 1 tbsp ground oregano
- 1 tbsp ground rosemary
- 1 tbsp ground thyme
- 1 tbsp ground basil
Instructions
- Thoroughly combine all ground ingredients and store in a tightly sealed container.
Notes
The ingredient quantity and unit of measure assume ground spices and ground dried herbs.
For the best results use whole seeds and pods. Toast them in a dry skillet for about 5 minutes until they start omitting their beautiful aromas. Then grind them in a spice mill. If using seeds or pods increase the volume (tablespoon or teaspoon) by 1/3. So for example if the recipe calls for 1 tbsp of ground sesame, use 1 1/3 tablespoons (1 tbsp plus 1 tsp) of sesame seeds. You can then combine all the seeds and pods and grind them together. Alternatively, grind the spices individually and then measure the ground product according to amount indicated above.
For best results, don’t make large batches of spice blends as the spices begin to lose potency immediately after grinding.
