Seasoning Formula

Perfect timing for this post!

The last couple days I have been pondering again the use of seasoning blends that may allow us to expand past the "11" in our recipes. I have looked into this before with a a version of Lumpy's Sexton clone. So here are a few Poultry Seasonings in one spot.

Schillings copycat:
• 2 teaspoons ground sage
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried marjoram
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
Place marjoram & thyme in a mortar & pestle (or spice grinder) and lightly process until powdered. Add remaining ingredients.
Bell’s Copycat:
• 4 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
• 4 tsp dried oregano
• 3 3/4 tsp dried sage
• 3 1/2 tsp ground dried ginger
• 3 tsp dried marjoram
• 2 3/4 tsp dried thyme
• 3/4 tsp ground black pepper
Mix together and grind to fine powder in a coffee or spice grinder. Makes about 1/2-cup.
McCormick’s Copycat:
• 2 tablespoons dried thyme
• 5 teaspoons dried sage
• 2 teaspoons dried marjoram
• 1 1/4 teaspoons dried rosemary
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Measure thyme, sage, marjoram & rosemary to a spice grinder. Process to a medium grind. Add pepper & nutmeg,  blend 5 more seconds.
Lumpy’s Sexton Copycat:
• 2 teaspoons sage
• 3/4 teaspoon coriander
• 1/2 teaspoon allspice
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger
