Roundy's Poultry Seasoning Blend
What it is
This is a blend of dried herbs and spices commonly used to season poultry. It typically includes sage, thyme, rosemary, marjoram, and sometimes black pepper or nutmeg. The combination creates a savory and aromatic profile that complements the natural flavors of chicken, turkey, and duck. It is a convenient way to add complex flavor without needing to measure individual herbs.
How people cook with it
This seasoning is a versatile addition to many savory dishes. It is particularly effective when used with roasted or grilled poultry.
- Rubbed onto whole chickens
- Mixed into stuffing
- Sprinkled on roasted turkey
- Added to chicken soup
Before cooking poultry, generously rub the seasoning blend all over the surface of the bird, both inside and out. For larger cuts like a whole chicken or turkey, ensure an even coating for consistent flavor. You can also incorporate it into marinades or brines. When making stuffing or gravies, adding a teaspoon or two can enhance the overall savory notes. It can also be stirred into pan sauces or used to season ground poultry mixtures.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike single herbs, this blend offers a balanced flavor profile. The specific combination of herbs provides a more complex and traditional taste that is distinct from using just sage or thyme alone. It is formulated to provide a harmonious savory note without overpowering the main ingredient.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for an easy way to add classic poultry flavor to their meals.
How to keep the rest
Keep the container tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This will help preserve the freshness and potency of the herbs and spices. Ensure the lid is properly sealed after each use to prevent moisture from entering and clumping the seasoning.
