I think this recipe requires a description of what it is used for. Before I try any recipe for a seasoning, I always try it out first on the posters recomended recipes. However there is no description at all with this recipe, so I haven't a clue what to do with it as I am unfamilliar with this spice. If the recipe is updated with a description and recomendations for it's use I would give it a try.

This recipe sounds nothing like what I remember Beau Monde tasting like. The cinnamon, cloves, allspice and nutmeg would be good in a pumpkin pie, but have no place in Beau Monde seasoning!! I can only imagine how bad Beau Monde dip would be when made with this strange concoction!! I have given a similar review to the other recipe posted here that also calls for what I would call "pumpkin pie spice". I bought some Spice Islands brand Beau Monde today and the ingredients on the container are: "Salt, Dextrose, Onion, Celery Seed, and Silicon Dioxide". I would caution anyone trying this recipe to try it in a very small quantity first and don't put it in something you're making for a special occasion until you try it out. I think you will agree with my opinion.

This is the best recipe to be used in a dip with cream cheese and mayo. If you do a search by ingredient, you would find the dips there.. This recipe is great and sure beats buying it when you can't find on the shelf!
