FAQs

Can I use fresh herbs instead of dried?

Fresh herbs contain more moisture and are less concentrated, so substitute approximately three times the amount of fresh herbs, but be mindful that this may affect the texture of your dish.

Is this seasoning suitable for other meats?

Yes, this blend also complements pork and vegetable dishes, making it a versatile addition to your spice collection.
