It’s been a while since I started by working week with a hangover. Now I remember why I don’t do it any more.
If you ever come across a bottle of white wine called Blue Nun – avoid it like the plague! My Official Treat Taster and I shared about a bottle and a half on Sunday afternoon (it was cloudy – what else were we meant to do on a cloudy Sunday afternoon?!) and I haven’t felt this bad in a long time. Like, a really long time. As much as I’m sure you’d love for me to drone on and on about how ill I feel this Monday morning, I’ll skip to telling you about the yummy recipe.
I love love LOVE hot and spicy meat seasonings and this one definitely fits the bill. It’s not so hot that you have to gulp down a glass of water as soon as the fork has touched your lips – who enjoys that? – but it’s absolutely bursting with flavors. If you’re stuck inside because of wet and chilly fall weather, whip up this seasoning and sprinkle it on your chicken/fish/pork/beef/vegetables/tofu/whatever for an instant burst of summer. This seasoning is so much better if the flavors are left to infuse for a couple of days, so if you can wait that long, throw all the ingredients together and store in an air-tight container before using.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon allspice
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Mix all of the ingredients together and store in an air-tight container.
- Use to marinate and season meat, fish and vegetables.

Hahah! Now I HAVE to try this wine….
Definitely making this spice, thanks!
If you see that wine in the store, run into a different aisle! Avoid avoid avoid! :P
Hope you enjoy the spice!
Thanks for sharing this mixture. I’ve pinned it to my “pantry staples” board. It will be a handy thing to have in the cupboard.
Hope you enjoy it, Beth!
