Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Dried basil

• 1 tablespoon Dried rosemary
• 1 tablespoon Dried thyme
• 1 tablespoon Dried marjoram
• 1 teaspoon Dried sage
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine the dried basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, marjoram, sage, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using).

Step 2

Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure the herbs and spices are evenly distributed.

Step 3

Using a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder, lightly grind the mixture to break down the larger herbs, such as rosemary, into smaller pieces (this step is optional but recommended for a finer texture).

Step 4

Transfer the seasoning mix to an airtight jar or container.

Step 5

Store in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months, giving the jar a shake before each use to recombine the flavors.
