Garlic Bread Seasoning​

Ingredients​

• 1/2 cup powdered Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 2 Tablespoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 2 teaspoons dried basil
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley

Instructions​

• Combine all ingredients in a small jar or container that has a lid. Stir mixture to combine and then seal shut with lid.
• Sprinkle on top of warm breadsticks OR combine 1 ½ Tablespoons garlic bread seasoning with 1/2 cup softened butter and spread on a loaf of French bread (cut in 1/2 lengthwise). Wrap in foil and bake at 375 until butter is melted. (You could also place it open-faced under the broiler for a few minutes, so it gets golden-brown and crispy

It will keep up to 2 months in an airtight glass jar all dry ingredients. Or till cheese expiry date.

I see above you say “kosher salt”
I have looked high and low for this salt and asked at the supermarket etc but no one stocks this salt. Where do you get it and what is it? Can you use ordinary salt instead?

It's a Jewish salt, very hard to find in Australia and very expensive . Sea salt flakes are similar.
To be honest when a recipe calls for kosher salt I just use normal salt but a little less eg if recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of kosher salt you use 3/4 teaspoon normal salt

Just use ordinary salt kosher salt Jewish people buy from their deli ordinary will do. Also I find it tastes better with fresh garlic don't fresh garlic in jar make an additional to the recepie on the day the fresh garlic brings flavour out to what ever you are make, that little extra flavour

Up to 2 months but also take into account expiry date of cheese o usually have no problem keeping for 2 months, as soon as you take amount out close it quickly so no dampness. Keep in air tight

Salt is salt is salt. Basic ingredient - sodium chloride NaCl. Add minimal amounts of some "magical potion" to make Himalayan Pink Salt, Kosher Salt, Halal Salt, Celtic Organic Salt, Peruvian Aphrodisiac Salt, Lake Eyre Longevity Salt and so on.

The price goes from 90 cents a kilo to $10 plus for 100 grams. Why? No health benefits whatsoever! A snake oil saleman's goldmine!

You can't mix parmesan cheese with other ingredients and store for two months. Herbs n spices mixed you can but don't add the parmesan until you are ready to use it.
Adding parmesan and storing for 2 months is asking for food poisoning

Thanks

My pleasure
