Instead of buying Herbamare or another type of Seasoned Salt, I make my own. Even if I didn’t grow my own herbs and dry them, it would still be more frugal for me to make my own version at home as most of the ingredients are commonly found in the spice cupboard. The great thing about making your own spice mixes is that you have complete control over the ingredients. Herbamare
obsessions preferences with my grocery budget by making my own Seasoned Salt.
An Herbamare substitute is easy to make. You just put all of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. The only ingredient that is not commonly found in your spice cupboard is dried kelp. If you don’t have it on hand, feel free to leave it out. This recipe makes one cup of seasoned salt.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sea salt
- 1/4 cup dried parsley
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon sage
- 1 teaspoon basil
- 1 teaspoon celery seed
- 1 teaspoon marjoram
- 1 teaspoon dried kelp
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a food processor and chop until smooth and blended.
- Let the spices settle, then remove from the food processor and store in an airtight container.
- Use as called for in recipes.

Nice! I’ll be making this one for sure. I’ve pinned to to my pantry staples board for future reference.
I LOVE this recipe! I only just bought my first pot of herbamare a couple of weeks ago and although it’s not SCD legal, I can adapt this one!
Making seasonings at home is so easy! I’ve only been doing so for a couple of years now and I cannot believe it took me so long to finally do it. So much better than the chemical mixes from the store.

I’ve never tried the herbamare before, but it sounds delicious. I’m going to make some with your recipe, once I get my kelp powder. Thanks for the recipe!!
I love your spice mixes, Alea, and this one is fantastic. I’m definitely going to make some to have on hand. We can’t get Herbamare here in England so it will be incredibly useful!!
I got my kelp powder today. Looking forward to making this tomorrow.
Thanks for the recipe!!
They aren’t selling this anymore at New Seasons. Thanks so much for posting a recipe! Now we can make our own!
