I made this as a component of Diana's Osso Bucco recipe. It is exquisite. The lavender, with help from the fennel, puts it head and shoulders above any other spice mixture I've tried. Elegant!

I sprinkled this on chicken tenders and grilled them to top a salad. It was great! Also nice to give away for gifts.

Ooh la la! C'est bien! I used this in lieu of the rub on Grilled Pork Chops with Herb Rub #51886 and also sprinkled over Roasted Root Vegetables recipe #54134... delicous elegant flavor on both. The lavender is a supreme touch. I didn't have any fennel, unfortunately, but FoodSubs.com directed me to use cumin seeds in lieu- it is a rather similar flavor and turned out very well. I like the flavor of this so well, though, that I am definitely going to get some fennel seeds and make more of this. I can't wait to try it in potato salad as Di suggested. As Marietta Mary Lou said- it's eqxuisite! Thanks for a really winner, Di. :)
