What it is
This Olde Thompson Fish Seafood Blend is a carefully curated mix of dried herbs and spices designed to enhance the flavor of seafood.

The blend is formulated to provide a balanced taste that complements the natural flavors of fish and shellfish without overpowering them. It comes in a convenient shaker bottle for easy application.
How people cook with it
This blend is a simple way to add depth and brightness to your seafood dishes. It works well with a variety of cooking methods.
- Sprinkle on grilled fish
- Mix into seafood chowders
- Season baked salmon
- Add to shrimp scampi
To use the Fish Seafood Blend, simply shake it directly onto your seafood before or during cooking. For grilling or baking, a light dusting before placing the food on the heat can infuse it with flavor as it cooks. When making sauces or stews, stir it in during the simmering process to allow the flavors to meld. You can also mix it with a little olive oil or butter to create a flavorful rub or marinade for fish fillets or whole fish. Adjust the amount to your personal taste preference.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike single herbs, this blend offers a complex flavor profile that has been pre-balanced by experts. It saves time compared to measuring out multiple individual spices. The inclusion of lemon peel provides a subtle citrus note that is often desired with seafood.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for an easy way to elevate their seafood preparations will find this blend useful.
How to keep the rest
To maintain the freshness and potency of the remaining blend, ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. This will help preserve the aromatic qualities of the herbs and spices.
