directions

  • NOTE: I RECOMMEND USING MORTON POPCORN SALT AND TRADEWINDS BRAND GROUND CELERY SALT, BOTH SOLD AT SMART & FINAL. THERE WILL BE A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT COLOR RESULT FROM LAWRY'S BRAND DUE TO THE ABSENCE OF OLEORESIN, A COLORING AGENT.
  • MEASURE all BASE MIXTURE ingredients into a small bowl.
  • COMBINE until well blended.
  • ADD all HERBS AND SPICES ingredients to BASE MIXTURE in bowl.
  • STIR and press with a fork for at least 2 minutes to release and infuse the essences between the spices.
  • STORE spice mixture in a tightly sealed container to preserve freshness (spice mixture actually improves after 30 days and becomes even more authentic due to the infusion between all of the herbs and spices).
  • ENJOY as a seasoning for your favorite foods.

Questions & Replies

  1. Is there something special about tradewinds celery salt? The brand Smart and Final carries now is First Street

  1. You really are a spice guru! Thanks, I use Lawry's on everything and ran out this morning! Needed some right away for my eggs! This whips up quick (except for the superfine sugar which I had to make because I don't keep it on hand) and our breakfast was a success. Thanks, it will be my go-to now , rather than going to the store! Very nice!<br/>Just made up my second batch, and didn't have enough regular paprika so I substituted 3/4 tablespoons of "smoked", It was very nice, and I will probably do it this way again. It just seems that I am running out of room for all these spices!!!!
     
  2. This is so close to Lawrys I couldn't tell the difference. I didn't know it was for ribs. I'll add this to my ribs next time I barbecue.
     
  3. Found out I'm allergic to MSG so having to make my own seasonings now. Ur a genious! We doubled the recipe and used garlic salt & onion salt instead of powders, then processed in my Ninja Food processor on high for 3 minutes! Thank you so much! Christina
     
  4. Of all the recipes for season salt that I've tried over the years, this was by far the closest to Lawry's. The mix is spot on. Being an old timer, I added back in 1/4 tsp of MSG, but with or without this was the best. Printed and hanging on the fridge. Thanks!
     
  5. Excellent recipe. You can obtain the correct color and enhance the flavor by adding one tablespoon of ground cinnamon.

Tweaks

  1. I'm on a low sodium diet, so I'd like to make a salt free version of this that I could blend with NO SALT or other salt substitutes. How should I modify this recipe? Can I use ground celery seed instead of celery salt?
