I went to Spice Island website and searched for a store in Colorado within 20 miles of where I live that sells beau monde and there isn't any. So I found a recipe to make your own. It is 2 Tbsp Onion Powder, 2 Tbsp Celery Salt and 1 Tbsp Powdered Sugar. TOSS INGREDIENTS IN A JAR WITH 6-10 GRAINS OF RICE (IF YOU LIVE IN A HUMID ENVIRONMENT AND WILL BE OPENING AND SHUTTING JAR A FEW TIMES OVER A COUPLE MONTHS. ) SHAKE IT UP GOOD. The reviews of it said that it tastes like the original and a lot less expensive. I will add more to flour mixture next time for more flavor. I had a problem with the cooking time. I followed the directions and by time I got to the turn every 5 mins for 15 mins my chicken was looking almost burnt. So I did not even do that step and the chicken crust was hard in places but the inside was nice and I could barely taste a hint of the seasoning mix but what I did taste for a second did taste good. I might look for a different recipe or change the cooking time for this one but I want to be able to follow a recipe and it come out like it is supposed to.

Made my own beau monde seasoning. It is not available in my area in Colorado according to Spice Island website.

The reviews sound fantastic! Has anyone tried cooking them in a deep fryer? I would love to use the recipe and then deep fry 'em. Looking for feedback if anyone has some. Thanks!
