French Herb Blend

Title:
French Herb Blend

Yield:
2 Cups

Categories:
Condiments,
Herbs




Ingredients:





   1/2 c  Tarragon


   1/2 c  Chervil


     2 tb Sage leaves


   1/2 c  Thyme


     2 tb Rosemary


     5 tb Chives (freeze-dried),


          -chopped


     2 tb Orange rind,


          -desiccated


     2 tb Celery seed, ground






 Dump everything together and mix until well-combined. Pack into small jars


 and label (the now-empty spice jars that held the ingredients are a good


 size). Store in a cool dry place. Crumble spices in hand when using.


 Measure spices by volume, not by weight, because of the large variation in


 moisture content.


 


 NOTES:


 


 *  A French-style mixture of herbs and seeds -- I found this in some


 magazine many many years ago. I usually make it every year or so and give


 it  to people as presents. The recipients are continually asking either for


 the recipe or refills. This goes well in soups and similar things but is


 especially good in scrambled eggs.


 


 : Difficulty:  easy.


 : Time:  5 minutes.


 : Precision:  approximate measurement OK.
