This quick and easy spice blend is good on almost any savory dish, or used whenever a good combination of spices with a bit of salt is desired.
It makes a welcome and attractive gift, placed in a decorative jar, and takes only minutes to prepare.
I have found it ideal to make with children, as they can add and mix the ingredients. It teaches them about food of different cultures, and they love to invent their own uses for the Spice Blend: sprinkle on cream cheese, cottage cheese, buttered toast, and pasta or rice. They are more likely to eat vegetables when using "their own" spice blend on them.
