It was the day before Thanksgiving, and I was out of poultry
seasoning, which was odd. I must have tossed it when I culled all the expired
spices, and forgot to replace it. Odder still, when I ran to the grocery store
to replace it, they were out of poultry seasoning, too. I was one of five
people crowding the spice aisle, staring at the empty spot on the shelf labelled, “poultry
seasoning.” Maybe the other four found the blend they wanted at another store.
Maybe they didn’t. But I went home and made:
Poultry Seasoning
2 teaspoons ground dried sage
1 1/2 teaspoons ground dried thyme
1 teaspoon ground dried marjoram
3/4 teaspoon ground dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon finely ground black pepper (Our pepper grinder lets you choose coarse or fine.)
Combine all ingredients in a small bowl; mix well. Store in
an airtight container up to four years.
