A spice collection isn’t a complete spice collection without italian seasoning. This is one of my most used spice blends next to taco and fajita seasonings. It’s the perfect blend of dried herbs like basil, marjoram and oregano and this recipe makes a lot so you won’t run out anytime soon.

To Make This Homemade Italian Seasoning Blend You Will Need:

  • basil (dried) – Lends a strong minty flavor with a hint of anise.
  • marjoram (dried) – Adds delicate flavor similar to oregano but sweeter and with more complicated flavor notes.
  • oregano (dried) – Lends earthy and slightly bitter flavor.
  • parsley (dried) – For bright and herbaceous flavor that will enhance the other ingredients in the dish.
  • rubbed sage (dried) – Is lighter (fluffier), less concentrated and not as intense as ground sage.
  • thyme (dried) – Lends a sharp and earthy flavor.
  • crushed rosemary (dried) – Adds a pine-like or woodsy flavor.
What Are The Best Spices For Making Your Own Seasonings and Spice Blends?

There’s no right or wrong brand. I will first say, buy what you can afford. However, not all spices are created equal as you tend to get what you pay for. Currently I use Morton & Bassett (not sponsored) because I find their spices to be top notch in texture, color and flavor. I love and respect what their company stands for not only with charitable work but also quality control. With that said some other wonderful brands I’ve used over the years are Simple Organic, Frontier Co-op and Penzys.

In a glass jar (that has a tight-fitting lid) measure and add 2 tablespoons of each dried basil, marjoram, oregano and parsley. Then measure and add in 1 tablespoon rubbed sage, 1 teaspoon each dried thyme and crushed dried rosemary.
