St. Sam's and St. Bede's Recipe Pages Bon Appetit! --------------------------------------------- All-purpose Creole Seasoning: 1 large box salt (Morton's free-flowing - I think it's 26 oz, but I'm not sure, cause other than this, I don' use salt.) Anyway, it's more than a pound. 1 1/2 oz ground black pepper (I usually use more, using some coarse ground too, like another 1/2 oz.) 2 oz ground red pepper (cayenne) 1 oz bottle garlic powder (I also use more of this) 1 oz chili powder (use the good stuff - the cheap crap tastes like sawdust and only gives you heartburn, no flavor) 1 oz MSG (Accent) (this is for the chemically impaired amongst you - if you're sensitive, skip it, but add a half handful of raw rice so it'll keep it from caking) - you can use silicon dioxide if'n you can find it - look hard.... Mix well and use like salt. On everything except maybe pancakes and strawberries. For seafood, add thyme, crushed bay leaf and 1 tbsp sweet basil. Maybe a little sugar and paprika too. ..........enjoy. This is pretty much the same stuff Tony sells. Store in an airtight jar for nearly forever. - pax - Andrew H.
