Meijer Everything Bagel Seasoning Blend
What it is
This is a savory seasoning blend designed to mimic the classic flavor of an everything bagel. It typically combines toasted sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and coarse salt. The toasted seeds provide a nutty depth, while the dried aromatics offer a pungent, savory base. The salt enhances all the flavors and adds a pleasant textural contrast.
How people cook with it
This versatile seasoning is perfect for adding a burst of flavor to a wide range of dishes. It's a convenient way to capture the popular everything bagel taste without the actual bagel.
- Sprinkled on avocado toast
- Mixed into cream cheese dips
- Coating chicken or fish
- Shaken over roasted vegetables
Simply sprinkle this seasoning blend generously over your favorite foods. It can be used before, during, or after cooking, depending on the desired effect. For baked goods like breads or crackers, it can be applied to the surface before baking to adhere. When used in dips or spreads, mix it in thoroughly to distribute the flavors evenly. For meats and vegetables, it adds a flavorful crust when applied before roasting or pan-frying.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike a simple salt and pepper mix, this blend offers a complex flavor profile with distinct notes of garlic, onion, and toasted seeds. It provides a more nuanced savory experience and a varied texture compared to single-ingredient seasonings.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking to easily add a popular, savory flavor to their meals will appreciate this blend.
How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness and prevent clumping, store the seasoning blend in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed after each use. This will help preserve the aromatic qualities of the dried ingredients.
