Description: My reverse-engineered recipe for Lawry's Seasoned Salt, originally marketed as a seasoning rub for ribs before barbecuing.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup fine salt (Morton Popcorn Salt)
3 1/2 teaspoons superfine sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons celery salt
1 tablespoon paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Steps:
NOTE: I RECOMMEND USING MORTON POPCORN SALT AND TRADEWINDS BRAND GROUND CELERY SALT, BOTH SOLD AT SMART & FINAL. THERE WILL BE A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT COLOR RESULT FROM LAWRY'S BRAND DUE TO THE ABSENCE OF OLEORESIN, A COLORING AGENT.
MEASURE all BASE MIXTURE ingredients into a small bowl.
COMBINE until well blended.
ADD all HERBS AND SPICES ingredients to BASE MIXTURE in bowl.
STIR and press with a fork for at least 2 minutes to release and infuse the essences between the spices.
STORE spice mixture in a tightly sealed container to preserve freshness (spice mixture actually improves after 30 days and becomes even more authentic due to the infusion between all of the herbs and spices).
