Your favorite seasonings?

When I cook, I use a seasoning called Vegeta. It is AMAZING, you should be able to find it in any Yugo, Turk, or German specialty store.

It is similar to OXO cubes, but in loose powder form. It rocks!

I have to have something spicy on most of the things I eat like, Cajun seasoning, cayenne pepper and crushed red pepper (guess you'd say I like pepper of all kinds!)
I too have to have fresh ground pepper and I love ground sea salt on most everything.
I like hot or even mild banana peppers on my salad...YUMMY

Basil or Oregano. Can't use both as the oregano overpowers the basil.

Red Hot Pepper in a shaker.

Ground black pepper or Paprika (which is also a bit peppery)

Chili powder goes in LOADS of things.

Capers go on during the last 5 minutes of the cooking process, and they include salt so I don't add salt very often. They are also great in salads straight from the jar.

Key lime juice from the bottle; sweet and sour all in one!!!

Garlic or Vidalia Onions


I have a full herbs and spice closet, I'd have to go check what is in there. This is all which came to mind. As Dad is diabetic, we use lots of seasonings to replace the "sugar" and fat he can't have. Been doing this for 6 years now and don't miss that stuff at all any more! I did take a few cooking classes and get some books on herbs and spices at the beginning to learn how to use different ones. And I love to cook and experiement, so that helps also.
