Also this winter I kept my pots of parsley, oregano, sage, and chives outside on the deck they are still growing and green despite our very cold 17° cold chills we had. I can not believe how winter hardy these wonderful spices really are So I really want to encourage everyone to grow their own, it aint' really that darn hard to do!

Default Poultry Seasoning

Poultry Seasoning is excellent for homemade stuffing, dressings or for fried chicken. It's a good rub for poultry, mixed into butter and then inserted between the meat and skin of a bird really flavors the meat. I usually use Bells Poultry Seasoning and this is a pretty good recipe for making it homemade.


1 tablespoon rosemary
1 tablespoon oregano
1 teaspoon sage
1 teaspoon of ginger
1 tablespoon marjoram
1 tablespoon thyme
1 teaspoon pepper

I recently posted a fried chicken recipe and in the recipe I listed Poultry Seasoning in the ingredient list. Several readers of the recipe were quick to point out that Marjoram is an excellent herb for fried chicken and how I should use it. Knowing whats in a seasoning blend is a good thing.

1 tablespoon thyme
1 tablespoon rosemary
1 tablespoon celery leaves
1 tablespoon ginger
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon sage

Mix together well and sprinkle on chicken.


or another:

3 teaspoons dry mustard
