There is nothing better than homemade seasoning mixes. They are versatile, the ingredients are wholesome with no unwanted additives (like MSG, soy or corn) and best of all, the recipe can be tweaked for heat preferences! We have a local farmer's market with its own spice shop that supplies us with the absolute freshest herbs and spices, sold in small or bulk quantities at a down low price. Soulard Market is located in downtown St. Louis and worth a trip if you live in the area!
