Seasoning Blends Substitutes

No Salt “Seasoned Salt”

Whether on a salt restricted diet or looking to eat healthier one very easy way to stick the recommended total daily intake of 1500 mg of sodium is to eliminate so called seasoned salt and flavored salts (i.e. onion or garlic salt) and switch to using the real onions and garlic or using the “powder” instead of the “salt” — and making your own salt free blend of seasoned salt.

Salt Free “Seasoned Salt”
4 teaspoons ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper (optional or to taste), 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon dried parsley; combine and store in air tight container; use equal portions as seasoned salt in recipes or to taste.

IF too peppery adjust to suit personal preference! The great thing about making your own seasoning blends is that you can alter them to your liking.

About Me

Hi, I'm Tammy!

I live in Idaho but I am a southerner and moved here for career reasons in 2000. However, I am now a retired widow and have lots of time to focus on what makes me happiest -- cooking, sharing recipes, as well as teaching and sharing with others what I know about cooking and nutrition.

I don't claim to know everything there is to know about cooking and I'm not a chef, although I do know a few and helped them out from time to time and my late husband was a trained cook and baker as well as a master at smoking meats and making BBQ, and I have studied nutrition at two colleges and one university along with other degrees. I like cooking from scratch and recipes made with prepackaged items are the exception rather than the norm.

However, being disabled, I have good days and bad days so I do use what I call "cheats" on occasion. For the most part though I've learned to pace myself and with a little preplanning I manage to do the prep one day and the cooking the next so the cheats still don't happen very often.

I have an enormous collection of recipes dating from the 1700s to the present (hence, vintage to modern). Because of my late husband's health issues I also have many diabetic and heart healthy recipes or my recipes often include substitutions along with the regular ingredients.

I do just about everything when it comes to cooking so other than predominantly scratch cooking, I don't really have a set focus on any particular cuisine. I even make a few cheeses, canning, homemade ginger ale, candies and confections, and the list goes on. If there is a recipe for something you'd like to see just leave a comment or write to me at: vintage2modernkitchen@gmail.com
