Lawry’s Pinch Of Herbs

Here is my true to the original version and a pretty good copycat of Lawry’s Pinch Of Herbs seasoning.   Recently I found a kopy cat recipe on the internet and wondered how true it was to the original.  Plaudits go out to that recipe creator,  for a very tasty seasoning.  This copycat recipe however, should be more true to the original because of one unique advantage…. I am fortunate enough to have a partially used bottle.  Being able to smell the aromas of its contents allows me to  compare results.

Seasoning shelves in my kitchen comprise at least 100 bottles of various spices so it is somewhat easier to KopyKat the original. For the best broiled zucchini;  a Pinch Of Herbs is a must.

The picture below shows each spice in the mixture, so this recipe follows the label’s ingredients in the order listed.  It also contains no MSG as stated on the label.  Since the label separates the salt and the garlic, I added each ingredient separately.   I used a gram scale, adding each portion by weight rather than volume.  I then translated the weight into volume to utilize standard kitchen measuring tools.  I also used the nutritional label for sodium content.  (83 mg per 1/4 tsp serving)
