First, you will need salt.

I personally choose RealSalt, because it has some minerals left in it, has lots of flavor and is still affordable. Other good salts for this are Himalayan, or Kosher. Using plain table salt will get you a very salty recipe and may not work as well. Plus, there are the health risks with using plain table salts that ...so just dont. Each recipe can be halved, doubled, or tripled as needed.

Basic House Seasoning

1/4 cup RealSalt
2 T. Black Pepper
2 T. garlic powder
This is my “go to” salt for seasoning just about everything from eggs to fish and chicken. It sits on the counter in a pinch bowl for easy access as well.

Season Salt

1/2 cup Real Salt
2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp oregano
1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp curry seasoning
This is great on steaks, burgers, or anything else you want to toss on the grill. I also have used it in mashed potatoes, on baked potatoes and anywhere a “kick” is needed.

Lemon Salt

1/4 cup Real Salt
2 T. dried lemon peel
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Great for fish, pasta, or compound butter seasoning. This has a lemony kick that tastes great on chicken too.

Chili Powdered Salt

1/4 cup Real Salt
3 T. paprika
2 T. Oregano
2 T. Cumin
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp. cocoa powder
This is great for anywhere you would use chili powder. In chili, in homemade taco seasoning, or and added kick to sauces.
