I have always enjoyed cooking and eating. I even took a couple of vacations to attend 5 day cooking courses in Florence, Italy and NYC.
We all use spices of some sort. I am not talking the basic spices like salt and pepper, garlic powder, etc. or florals like Basil and Rosemary.
I have nailed mine down to pretty much 4 shaker blends you can buy in store or online.
Cavender's Greek blend....a pretty darn good blend to give a Mediterranean flair to most any food or salad.
Tony Chacheres Creole blend...if you want the taste of the Big Easy, this is the Grandaddy.
Knorr's Aromat....You can't always find it in the store but it is a good all purpose seasoning. If MSG isn't your thing, don't use this, but MSG makes everything taste better.
Last,Columbia restaurant all purpose season. My wife and I are in the Tampa area a lot and the Columbia is my #1 Cuban restaurant. It might be my #1 restaurant.
Their seasoning is perfect for chops and loins,,,,steaks of beef as well. Linked is the Columbia site where you can check out the restaurants and the store. My favorite restaurant, the have several in the St. Armonds location.
It's great on mixed veggies.
