Back in the 70’s our Home Economics teacher taught us how to read all package ingredients and make our own version of it. Processed food were not as common as today and homemade was still the preferred. I still have books from back then on make your own. I’m saddened that schools don’t even teach it anymore.
@@FosterChicken Yes, I found her to invite her to our 20 year reunion. She was unable to come but I was able to express so many of us wanted her to attend because of all the valuable information she taught us. My mom was a wonderful cook but could not sew a stitch and Miss Edwards taught us all to sew also.
@@annettewhite4296 Baking mixes, a basic white sauce and how to then turn it into a cheese sauce, mushroom sauce, onion sauce, instant soups, meat extender the contents are endless. I'll pull the books out tomorrow and you tell me something you've always wanted to learn to make at home and let's see if it's in them. This will be fun!
The only thing wrong with this videos is it's too short!! 🤣 Thanks for sharing Becky! I made herb salt and compound butter with my abundance of herbs. So yummy!
@@jerrisomervell4857 in one of her other videos, she said that she uses the Himalayan salt rather than iodized salt because for canning purposes you can't use iodized salt for some reason. Im guessing she just buys bulk Himalayan salt so she can use it in multiple things as well as canning.
Watching your videos has only furthered my passion about having a garden, becoming more self-sustaining, and trying to be as natural as possible. You’ve also reinvigorated my passion for cooking. And are also really making me want to give UA-cam another go… you’re just a powerhouse of inspiration for me haha. Thank you!
Becky, I really love your channel, and I love watching and learning from you. I really feel like I'm just hanging out in your kitchen. Thanks so much for sharing your life with us!
Due to a soy allergy, I have to make all my own salad dressings so I make Catalina dressing. As for the seasonings, I make Ranch, Italian, Taco, Chile, Onion Soup mix, pumpkin and apple pie spice mix.
I make ranch dressing mix, a version of Payla Dean's house seasoning (tweaked it to suit our family), several different gravy varieties, dried onion soup mix, taco seasoning, stir fry seasoning, and steak seasoning. Everytime I make a new recipe that calls for some blend I don't have, I check for copy cat recipes and see if I can make it with what I have on hand.
Awesome chlippr77! I’ve never really been much of a cook so figuring out how to put things together to work for our tastes hasn’t been something I’ve even tried believing I didn’t know how. I still don’t but thanks to videos like Becky’s and a few others I will figure it out. It’s encouraging to see that others like yourself have assembled an assortment of blend varieties.
Would love to have your dried onion soup mix recipe! I've been dehydrating the heck out of some onions for months with onion soup in mind for the winter months! Mmm!
I've made my own Italian seasoning, taco seasoning, pork seasoning and curry powder substitute. Once my store bought garlic and seasoned salt is gone, I'll be making my own. Looking forward to your wood stove cooking videos.
My taco seasoning and my chili seasoning are pretty darned good, if I may say so! Curry powder, check! Ranch seasoning, check! So fun, less expensive, I know what’s in it!
Would you mind giving your recipes for the Italian and taco seasoning please? Im in Ireland, don't really see taco seasoning and the Italian seasoning is just so bland!!
@@dorothyyoung8231 oh I LOVE ranch dressing, can't get it here in Ireland- my cousin gets me a few bottles when he goes to NY. Would you mind giving me the recipe please?
There’s this spice blend that I love. I use it on everything. Recently checked the ingredients and saw that it would be easy to make. Here’s hoping one day o have energy to do it
I am so happy to find your channel. I have been learning about homesteading for about 2 years now and you are the first person I've found that is close to me! I live in Portland and it is so nice to see another homesteader who is so real and so close! I know it might sound crazy but I would love to meet you :)
I absolutely love making my own seasoning blends. I make my own Mexican blend seasoning that I gift to loved ones during the holidays. I use it in my chili, tacos, fajita, and much more ❤️🤤
I did your season salt, but without the onion powder (because I don't have it) and I put a little bit more paprika... it is WONDERFUL! Thank you for the recipe !!
At Thanksgiving, I ran out of poultry seasoning. I looked at the ingredients and realized I had everything. So I just googled a recipe and in a couple minutes, had a fresh batch. Game changer!! Now I look up all my mixes and pre-mix when I see I'm getting low! Joined Instagram today just for you!
I have heard a bunch of people talk about making their own spice blends, but I usually cook by “smell” so I end up adding individual spices instead of blends. Plus I don’t want to use up lots of space to store specialty blends that don’t get used. I’ve never seen a season salt recipe though and this one looks easy and worth taking the space to store in a quart jar. 😊 Thanks for sharing this one!
I’m so happy I found your channel. Believe it or not I’ve actually learned a lot of interesting and valuable information from you, and I’m almost 70 and have homesteading for over 50 years. You are a valuable asset to the homesteading community here on YT. The research you share is what got me. You’re so dang cute and a pleasure to watch. Thank you!
Becky!!! In an earlier video you said to put a wet rag by the cutting board when cutting onion and your eyes wouldn’t burn. That sounded crazy to me. Today I cooked up 30 cups of green salsa and had to chop 8 onions. I tried it. WORKED!!! Why haven’t I heard this before?! I’m 60!!
You are the sweetest thing! Is anyone else plotting their Christmas List? I have your ranch and taco saved ... I just need to look up how long they are 'technically' good for to let the recipients know.
Becky I just saw that 2 days ago you were at 100,000 subscribers... awesome... but in just 2 days you grown by 5,000... way to go. It's a great channel.
Thankyou for your ideas. I make onion soup mix, taco seasoning, gravy powder, mixed herbs, crumble topping mix, dried seasoned bread crumbs and hot chocolate drink mix. All in bulk. I love your bulk cooking videos too. From Melbourne Australia
This just adds to the way we are all hooked on sugar. I was amazed that there would be sugar in a savory salty seasoning mix.
3 роки тому+1
Most packaged seasoning mixes have sweeteners in them, but they go by many different names that you might not connect them with sugars. The worst one of all in terms of human health is high fructose corn syrup, but they're inventing new ones all the time.
My son lives in WashDC on the sixth floor with a balcony and he grew huge basil, parsley, cherry toms, and a couple bell peppers over the summer. In the winter he grows sprouts with a single grow lightbulb in his bathroom during the day. It’s amazing.
Thank you guys, but not only do I have cats that like to eat everything in sight, I also have very nosy neighbors that like to take as they please. I’ve had two “dramatic plants” taken off of my porch in the past month to two months now 😅 I’ll just wait patiently:)
Thank you Becky. I’m very interested in making my own seasoning blends. I don’t use them, and when a recipe calks for them, I sort of approximate. Easy enough with garlic powder, but not so much the complicated ones. Glad to see your garden has done so well.
I was just cooking dinner with my adult son. I had been telling him about your videos and how easy and enjoyable you are to listen to - I used your interrupting yourself in the garden story as an example. We talked a little about some of the things you cook and I mentioned your "tablespoon" of whatever seasoning you're using, including salt. He complains I never use enough salt. So now I am to channel my inner Becky when salting food :) Thanks for being able to give us a laugh today while cooking. It's been a good day :)
Oh right on, i havent made seasoning salt before...but have made celery salt, taco seasoning and ranch dressing seasoning mix. I live off the beaten path and the closest grocery store is 1 1/2 hours away, so i try to make as much homemade things as possible. i have been enjoying your channel, thank you
Great video! I make my own homemade seasoning salt using 2 cups Himalayan pink salt, 1/2 cup each of onion powder, garlic powder, paprika and nutritional yeast. Its amazing on roasted vegetables and potatoes. I use it on my eggs, tomato sandwiches... Just about anything!
I’ve made a few salts this summer so far: a Tuscan salt with my own sage, oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, garlic and lemon zest - add in good coarse salt and blend in the food processor. Spread out on a baking sheet and dry in a low temp oven for a few hours. Smells & tastes great and makes a fun gift for friends. Another salt I made by simply using lemon zest and dried basil - masked a great salt. Finally, I dried a ton of celery leaves in the oven and blended with salt in the food processor. So delish. I’m thinking of making a hot salt with dried jalapeños next.
I love your personality.....I just started watching your videos and I'm hooked. I will definitely put this on my to-do list this weekend. Thanks for all the amazing video tips!!!!
I been watching and learning so much from you and now I am doing everything thing you have been teaching .love marking it all in one day and having not to think what I am going to make for dinner ...thank you so much
I like to use my garlic scapes to make garlic salt. Blitz up about 24 rough chopped scapes in food processor, add 2 cups salt & blend to combine in processor. Spread on sheet tray in an even layer. Put in oven at 200 degrees for several hours to dehydrate the scapes.
I make my seasoned salt every year with herbs I pick in my garden all summer here in Norway and dried. Oregano, dill, basil, parsley, sage, lovage, thyme, etc.
Yupp!! Italian seasonings, Black and white peppercorns. Many Finishing Salts (flavored salts), flavored sugars. It all starts with good quality ingredients! I just finished dehydrating the rest of my herbs.
I started making my own taco seasoning a few years ago because my friend is gluten-free and so many packaged seasonings have gluten. My family loves it so much better, that I’ll never buy the packets again! I’m excited to try the season salt next! Thanks girl! 👊🏼
your salts are great hacks for LAWRY'S seasoned and garlic salts. They also have a chain of restaurants, some under different names. They've been around for a very long time; over 80 years and I've used them for probably 50-60 of them. I LOVE your copy cat and will definitely be making them! I do make my own taco seasoning! Once again, thanks so much!
A great thing I've recently found and love is garlic pepper instead of garlic salt. While currently restricted on salt in the families meals I turned to this for the first time and have absolutely loved it.
Hi Becky! I do those that you just did and I also do my own Onion Soup mix, ranch mix, Italian dressing mix, Italian seasoning mix as well. I put them in half gallon mason jars. They last me about a year I use them all often. Also make 50 pounds of herbed butter that I leave in freezer and pull out a log at a time. 50 pounds lasts our family 1 year
Good morning! Yes, I have made some of my own mix of seasonings. One I use a lot, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. Now I don't have to reach for 3 different bottles. Also an onion soup mix without salt then I can add to taste. I liked the packets but had too much salt. Thank you for some new additions! ❤️
I love making my own shawarma seasoning. I make it bulk because it goes soooooo fast at my house. Making your own seasoning blends really changed the game! I’ll never go back :)
Becky, you are so inspiring! You need to be the next FoodNetwork Star! I always learn so much from your videos. This, coming from a 60+ person who grew up on a farm and my mom planted a huge garden and canned everything imaginable! Sadly, other than snapping beans and shucking corn, I didn't learn much in the kitchen. I was usually out on the farm helping my dad. Thank you so much!
I can’t wait to try to make these. I’m so excited to find recipes that don’t contain fruits or veggies. Don’t get me wrong, I love watching you make all kinds of things, I’m just happy to be able to personally enjoy them. Thank you so much!!!! Keep on rockin’ girl. Love it all!!!!!!
These mixes are awesome, I love your seasoning salt recipe, I use it on everything! and the ranch one as well. Please share more of those if you do have more, It would be great. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Becky. We have our seasoning mix on the table and we add it to cooking, too. It includes salt, black ground pepper and paprika but I may tweak it a little after seeing you making yours. Thanks as ever for fab ifo in your videos. 💚
This is why I like making my own curry blends. A lot of times store bought blends have waaaaay too much clove in them for me (I'm not allergic, exactly, just sensitive to it and ugh) so making my own curry blends is the way to go! Thanks for sharing these!
Thank you so much for this video! I have been eagerly awaiting another spice blend tutorial! Love watching your videos! Thank you for the hard work you put into your channel! It shows 😊💕
You are so beautiful, Becky! Inside and out! I love your tenacity with making homemade and bypass the preservatives of the things we don't realize we are buying at the Grocery store.
I have made some seaonings... like taco seasoning...I love your channel...you bring things that are helpful an economical...I used your onion tops video an made onion powder out of my onion tops. Did not know I could use the tops like that...so good
Flavored salts!! I make wine salt, Sriracha salt and mushroom salt regularly. I also have a green power salt, which is all of my dehydrated greens added to salt for a bit of a green punch. Yummy added to soups and stews!
Hello Becky I've just found your channel and i LOVE it!! I've been binge watching your content for 3 days and loved all the posting!! I've learned so much from you You are a Rockstar in the kitchen and the garden
Hi Becky, just wanted to say hi. This is Kathy in Rowlett TX. I have been making , and enjoying your spice blends for months. My husband, and son hit a wall with one of these seasonings, when they made some taco meat using the seasoning I had made. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I was sick that day, and get the chance to eat the tacos. The two of them kept asking themselves what’s that flavor they were tasting. When preparing the seasoning blend, I was on auto pilot. I had just made three or four recipes prior to this one, When they went to the label I made for the bottle
For natural coloring you can actually dry and then blend to a powder some ingredients from the garden.... orange colouring from carrots, red colour from red beets and so on... you tube got loads of videos of natural made colouring for food....
Thank you so much! We definitely go through so much Garlic salt and I didn't realize it had sugar in it and I read labels for so much of what I eat!..I will be using your recipe and making my own. Again, thank you!
Last year I made garlic salt for the first time. I simply used fresh homegrown garlic and rock salt. Blitzed it in a small food processor. Spread it thinly on a lined (baking paper) baking tray. Baked on low until dry. Then I blitzed it again. Yum! As it was first time I didn’t make enough. Been hanging out for my garlic to be ready so I can make more….lots more :)
We will be giving this a go!!! I already make my own taco seasoning, ranch seasoning, house seasoning and steak seasoning. I do it mostly to control our salt intake. Thank you for the recipes!!!
I wish I lived next door to you. What a great couple of recipes. Thank you. Love everything you make. I have diabetes so will have to leave out the sugar. Hope it won’t make that much difference.
There’s an attachment that goes on your food save for mason jars to keep spices fresher. That might help with the spices you give away, then when they open them, they can hear that glorious *POP* ;)
I have never made season really but I have made tea. Works great on sore throats when your sick, really helps kids there isn’t much on the market that actually helps them. But I lost recipe know there was dandelion root and about 4 other herbs can’t wait to try yours!
Not seasoning but I make big batches of crumble topping, bake it on trays cool and freeze in ziplock bags. Frozen fruit cooked in a pan plus a bag of crumble mix makes a lovely quick dessert 🍨 for those cold winter night to come!
I am trying to restrict my salt intake as per my doctor. I recently have researched online and made my own fajita seasoning, taco seasoning, barbecue seasoning and ranch seasoning. It's not hard and I like that I can control more and it's more natural and is without preservatives and other junk that I don't need.
The restrictions for salt..is mostly an outdated finding..less than 10% of people eating an normal amount of salt..home cooking certainly has less and better quality salt will show a rise in blood pressure..doctors are slow to embrace new research.. I am a 25 year experience RN..speaking that does follow the new research.
@@lesliejacobs1439 I agree. I’ve never had high blood pressure, but do find it rises when I eat more processed food. In my home, I use unprocessed salt - sea salt or pink Himalayan. I believe the craving for salt is actually craving the minerals that are removed from table salt. And, anti caking agents, if they’re effective on hard salt, what do they do to blood vessels? I wonder if there’s a correlation with cholesterol. It’s not hard to deal with caking salt. I use as much salt as I want and my BP remains low.
@@lesliejacobs1439 everyone has to do what's right for them. I find that when I eat too much salt it increases my blood pressure and I retain fluid. When I back off I feel better, my blood pressure is where it should be and I don't feel like a beached whale.
Thank you. My son and I just made your hot sauce today. It was easy and it tastes amazing. Best sauce we ever made. Will also make this. Will grow my own garlic next year .
My partner loves lemon pepper salt, so when I got a dehydrator, that was the first thing I made. I dehydrated lemon peels (I get organic when I'm going to be eating the peels!) and blitzed them up into a powder. Then I added salt and pepper. We also keep a small amount of lemon powder on its own in case we want to change up the proportions in a recipe. The leftover, peel-less lemons were then juiced and frozen into cubes for when we need lemon juice, and the bitter rinds were boiled down to make pectin for jam! It was such a game changer to use every part of the lemon when the intention was just to make some seasoning :)
Other tip fro my old farm girl days , is you can put your green tomatoes in brown paper lunch bags and they will ripen . My grandmother had a recipe for canning green tomatoes with onions and a sweet brine. She called it pickelilly and was eaten as a side with sandwiches she was born in the Pittsburgh area but lived most of her child hood in Mississippi and the family came back to the PA area when she was in her late teens. I grew up in a German Irish family culture but my growing up area was so diverse with so many ethnic groups because the steel Mills attracted a lot of immigration. There were festivals every year Greek Syrian polish German Italian Chinese and the food was so good. Canning is a wonderful idea but you either have to grow it yourself in abundance or be able to purchase it somewhere from Farmers or farmers markets other than that the produce is too expensive if you're buying it in smaller quantities in grocery stores
Controlling added ingredients is so important! I’ve read that natural flavors is an umbrella statement that could include up to 50+ chemicals. No thank you! Good stuff, Becky!
Do you think you could make a video or an Amazon list of your must have kitchen tools for canning and for day to day cooking? You've really inspired me to start canning and bulk cooking and maybe start a garden 😂❤
I made some of your freezer meals the other day and boy were they a hit!!! Great for when I’m feeling uninspired and tired in the kitchen. Keep all the recipes and ideas coming 😊😊
Oooohhh Noooooooo I blinked & the vid finished…Thanks Becky I def still loved it huni❣️..☺️ so so much better making your own seasonings & u can tweak them to suit your own taste to..Am just in the middle of Jar pickling 10kg shallot onions with 2 different homemade spice mixes (to give the finished product to my friends,family & myself lol xx ❣️😁
Please write a cookbook. I have learned so much here. And I bought the Test kitchens book. It’s amazing.

Quick tip: Dollar tree sells 1lb bags of Himalayan salt. At a $1 a pound it is the cheapest Himalayan salt I've found.
Yes. I bought it not too long ago :)
Walmart sell the EXACT same brand and weight for FOUR bucks.. I was happy when I saw it at dollar tree
Why use the Himalayan salt over "regular" iodized salt?
@@jerrisomervell4857 likely personal preference, also Himalayan salt has bigger granules.
@@jerrisomervell4857 in one of her other videos, she said that she uses the Himalayan salt rather than iodized salt because for canning purposes you can't use iodized salt for some reason. Im guessing she just buys bulk Himalayan salt so she can use it in multiple things as well as canning.

The more I watch your videos, the more I wish I didn’t live in an apartment so I can have my own garden and such 😭😭😌
Do you a balcony… or windows that bring in natural light
Are there community garden plots available? If you have a sunny spot, herbs are super easy to grow in your apt.
You can grow thyme, oregano,dill and parsley on a window sill. There is a patio tomato and you can grow a bell pepper plant with a grow light.
My son lives in WashDC on the sixth floor with a balcony and he grew huge basil, parsley, cherry toms, and a couple bell peppers over the summer. In the winter he grows sprouts with a single grow lightbulb in his bathroom during the day. It’s amazing.
Thank you guys, but not only do I have cats that like to eat everything in sight, I also have very nosy neighbors that like to take as they please. I’ve had two “dramatic plants” taken off of my porch in the past month to two months now 😅 I’ll just wait patiently:)

Another salt I made by simply using lemon zest and dried basil - masked a great salt. Finally, I dried a ton of celery leaves in the oven and blended with salt in the food processor. So delish. I’m thinking of making a hot salt with dried jalapeños next.
Great ideas! Thank you
You are rocking and rolling. Congratulations on 100k 💯💯💯💥💥💥
Your becoming one of my favorites! Love to watch you!
I love your personality.....I just started watching your videos and I'm hooked. I will definitely put this on my to-do list this weekend. Thanks for all the amazing video tips!!!!
Yay! Thank you!
Hello from South Africa! This is my new favourite channel. ❤️
I been watching and learning so much from you and now I am doing everything thing you have been teaching .love marking it all in one day and having not to think what I am going to make for dinner ...thank you so much
Mrs. Kados here. I have referred to this vlog three times since "meeting" you on UA-cam. Thanks for doing such a great job!
I like to use my garlic scapes to make garlic salt. Blitz up about 24 rough chopped scapes in food processor, add 2 cups salt & blend to combine in processor. Spread on sheet tray in an even layer. Put in oven at 200 degrees for several hours to dehydrate the scapes.
Greetings from East Texas! Looks fabulous! Nothing like making your own spice blends
I make my seasoned salt every year with herbs I pick in my garden all summer here in Norway and dried. Oregano, dill, basil, parsley, sage, lovage, thyme, etc.
Yupp!! Italian seasonings, Black and white peppercorns. Many Finishing Salts (flavored salts), flavored sugars. It all starts with good quality ingredients! I just finished dehydrating the rest of my herbs.
I started making my own taco seasoning a few years ago because my friend is gluten-free and so many packaged seasonings have gluten. My family loves it so much better, that I’ll never buy the packets again! I’m excited to try the season salt next! Thanks girl! 👊🏼
Drop your recipe here please! :)
your salts are great hacks for LAWRY'S seasoned and garlic salts. They also have a chain of restaurants, some under different names. They've been around for a very long time; over 80 years and I've used them for probably 50-60 of them. I LOVE your copy cat and will definitely be making them! I do make my own taco seasoning! Once again, thanks so much!
A great thing I've recently found and love is garlic pepper instead of garlic salt. While currently restricted on salt in the families meals I turned to this for the first time and have absolutely loved it.
Hi Becky! I do those that you just did and I also do my own Onion Soup mix, ranch mix, Italian dressing mix, Italian seasoning mix as well. I put them in half gallon mason jars. They last me about a year I use them all often. Also make 50 pounds of herbed butter that I leave in freezer and pull out a log at a time. 50 pounds lasts our family 1 year
I have just recently found this channel and I'm addicted!!! Love all your videos and you have inspired me 🤗 tysm
Finally, I've been wondering about your seasoning condiments and now I know how to make all Thanks to you. Thank you for Sharing!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗
Good morning! Yes, I have made some of my own mix of seasonings. One I use a lot, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. Now I don't have to reach for 3 different bottles. Also an onion soup mix without salt then I can add to taste. I liked the packets but had too much salt. Thank you for some new additions! ❤️
Good morning from Roseburg OR. :) xoxoxo
I love making my own shawarma seasoning. I make it bulk because it goes soooooo fast at my house.
Making your own seasoning blends really changed the game! I’ll never go back :)
Becky, you are so inspiring! You need to be the next FoodNetwork Star! I always learn so much from your videos. This, coming from a 60+ person who grew up on a farm and my mom planted a huge garden and canned everything imaginable! Sadly, other than snapping beans and shucking corn, I didn't learn much in the kitchen. I was usually out on the farm helping my dad. Thank you so much!
Vickie you are to sweet :) thank you for being here!!
I can’t wait to try to make these. I’m so excited to find recipes that don’t contain fruits or veggies. Don’t get me wrong, I love watching you make all kinds of things, I’m just happy to be able to personally enjoy them. Thank you so much!!!! Keep on rockin’ girl. Love it all!!!!!!
These mixes are awesome, I love your seasoning salt recipe, I use it on everything! and the ranch one as well. Please share more of those if you do have more, It would be great. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Becky. We have our seasoning mix on the table and we add it to cooking, too. It includes salt, black ground pepper and paprika but I may tweak it a little after seeing you making yours. Thanks as ever for fab ifo in your videos. 💚
This is why I like making my own curry blends. A lot of times store bought blends have waaaaay too much clove in them for me (I'm not allergic, exactly, just sensitive to it and ugh) so making my own curry blends is the way to go! Thanks for sharing these!
Thank you so much for this video! I have been eagerly awaiting another spice blend tutorial! Love watching your videos! Thank you for the hard work you put into your channel! It shows 😊💕
You are so beautiful, Becky! Inside and out!
I love your tenacity with making homemade and bypass the preservatives of the things we don't realize we are buying at the Grocery store.
Good morning Becky, I am a seasonings junky, I have a cabinet full of spices. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼🤗🥰😘
Oooh I’m so excited!
I have made some seaonings... like taco seasoning...I love your channel...you bring things that are helpful an economical...I used your onion tops video an made onion powder out of my onion tops. Did not know I could use the tops like that...so good
Thank you you teach this old lady lots of good homemade extras. I will make .
Flavored salts!! I make wine salt, Sriracha salt and mushroom salt regularly. I also have a green power salt, which is all of my dehydrated greens added to salt for a bit of a green punch. Yummy added to soups and stews!
Hello Becky I've just found your channel and i LOVE it!! I've been binge watching your content for 3 days and loved all the posting!! I've learned so much from you You are a Rockstar in the kitchen and the garden
Hi Becky, just wanted to say hi. This is
Kathy in Rowlett TX. I have been making , and enjoying your spice blends for months. My husband, and son hit a wall with one of these seasonings, when they made some taco meat using the seasoning I had made. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I was sick that day, and get the chance to eat the tacos. The two of them kept asking themselves what’s that flavor they were tasting. When preparing the seasoning blend, I was on auto pilot. I had just made three or four recipes prior to this one, When they went to the label I made for the bottle
For natural coloring you can actually dry and then blend to a powder some ingredients from the garden.... orange colouring from carrots, red colour from red beets and so on... you tube got loads of videos of natural made colouring for food....
Thank you so much! We definitely go through so much Garlic salt and I didn't realize it had sugar in it and I read labels for so much of what I eat!..I will be using your recipe and making my own. Again, thank you!
Last year I made garlic salt for the first time. I simply used fresh homegrown garlic and rock salt. Blitzed it in a small food processor. Spread it thinly on a lined (baking paper) baking tray. Baked on low until dry. Then I blitzed it again. Yum! As it was first time I didn’t make enough. Been hanging out for my garlic to be ready so I can make more….lots more :)
We will be giving this a go!!! I already make my own taco seasoning, ranch seasoning, house seasoning and steak seasoning. I do it mostly to control our salt intake. Thank you for the recipes!!!
Good morning Becky!! I love homemade seasonings. Thank you for these recipes.
REALLY enjoy these short videos, straight to the point! and really good
I really needed garlic salt the other day for a recipe. I still haven't bought any. So glad you posted this!
I wish I lived next door to you. What a great couple of recipes. Thank you. Love everything you make. I have diabetes so will have to leave out the sugar. Hope it won’t make that much difference.
There’s an attachment that goes on your food save for mason jars to keep spices fresher. That might help with the spices you give away, then when they open them, they can hear that glorious *POP* ;)
I have never made season really but I have made tea. Works great on sore throats when your sick, really helps kids there isn’t much on the market that actually helps them. But I lost recipe know there was dandelion root and about 4 other herbs can’t wait to try yours!
Not seasoning but I make big batches of crumble topping, bake it on trays cool and freeze in ziplock bags. Frozen fruit cooked in a pan plus a bag of crumble mix makes a lovely quick dessert 🍨 for those cold winter night to come!
I am trying to restrict my salt intake as per my doctor. I recently have researched online and made my own fajita seasoning, taco seasoning, barbecue seasoning and ranch seasoning. It's not hard and I like that I can control more and it's more natural and is without preservatives and other junk that I don't need.
The restrictions for salt..is mostly an outdated finding..less than 10% of people eating an normal amount of salt..home cooking certainly has less and better quality salt will show a rise in blood pressure..doctors are slow to embrace new research.. I am a 25 year experience RN..speaking that does follow the new research.
@@lesliejacobs1439 I agree. I’ve never had high blood pressure, but do find it rises when I eat more processed food. In my home, I use unprocessed salt - sea salt or pink Himalayan. I believe the craving for salt is actually craving the minerals that are removed from table salt. And, anti caking agents, if they’re effective on hard salt, what do they do to blood vessels? I wonder if there’s a correlation with cholesterol. It’s not hard to deal with caking salt. I use as much salt as I want and my BP remains low.
@@lesliejacobs1439 everyone has to do what's right for them. I find that when I eat too much salt it increases my blood pressure and I retain fluid. When I back off I feel better, my blood pressure is where it should be and I don't feel like a beached whale.
Thank you. My son and I just made your hot sauce today. It was easy and it tastes amazing. Best sauce we ever made. Will also make this. Will grow my own garlic next year .
My partner loves lemon pepper salt, so when I got a dehydrator, that was the first thing I made. I dehydrated lemon peels (I get organic when I'm going to be eating the peels!) and blitzed them up into a powder. Then I added salt and pepper. We also keep a small amount of lemon powder on its own in case we want to change up the proportions in a recipe. The leftover, peel-less lemons were then juiced and frozen into cubes for when we need lemon juice, and the bitter rinds were boiled down to make pectin for jam! It was such a game changer to use every part of the lemon when the intention was just to make some seasoning :)
How do you boil the rinds for pectin?? This is awesome!
Other tip fro my old farm girl days , is you can put your green tomatoes in brown paper lunch bags and they will ripen . My grandmother had a recipe for canning green tomatoes with onions and a sweet brine. She called it pickelilly and was eaten as a side with sandwiches she was born in the Pittsburgh area but lived most of her child hood in Mississippi and the family came back to the PA area when she was in her late teens. I grew up in a German Irish family culture but my growing up area was so diverse with so many ethnic groups because the steel Mills attracted a lot of immigration. There were festivals every year Greek Syrian polish German Italian Chinese and the food was so good. Canning is a wonderful idea but you either have to grow it yourself in abundance or be able to purchase it somewhere from Farmers or farmers markets other than that the produce is too expensive if you're buying it in smaller quantities in grocery stores
Yes, I do make my own seasonings and I love them! Yours look great too! Thanks for sharing.
I love having homemade chili seasoning, taco seasoning, cajun seasoning and italian!
I make my own taco seasoning, old bay, dressings, pie spice..its never ending
Controlling added ingredients is so important! I’ve read that natural flavors is an umbrella statement that could include up to 50+ chemicals. No thank you! Good stuff, Becky!
Made me LOL when you changed the brand name of the seasonings to Larson’s! 🙃
Love everything you do! Thank you so much!You are my spirit sister!
Do you think you could make a video or an Amazon list of your must have kitchen tools for canning and for day to day cooking? You've really inspired me to start canning and bulk cooking and maybe start a garden 😂❤
I’m my cooking videos I have all the equipment listed and canning equipment too in the discretion box. I need to set up a full list
I made some of your freezer meals the other day and boy were they a hit!!! Great for when I’m feeling uninspired and tired in the kitchen. Keep all the recipes and ideas coming 😊😊
If you add a small amount of tapioca starch or arrowroot starch it will help keep it from clumping if any small amount of moisture gets in your jar.
Awesome Now I will Make my own! Thank you Becky! This is the fastest I have ever heard you speak....had to rewind 4 times 😉
Oooohhh Noooooooo I blinked & the vid finished…Thanks Becky I def still loved it huni❣️..☺️ so so much better making your own seasonings & u can tweak them to suit your own taste to..Am just in the middle of Jar pickling 10kg shallot onions with 2 different homemade spice mixes (to give the finished product to my friends,family & myself lol xx ❣️😁
