Poultry Seasoning "Substitution" ???

Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme (Seriously. That song
shoulda been called "Poultry Seasoning"😉, and black pepper.

Heavy on the sage. Sage, thyme, and rosemary are all
powerful seasonings so be careful.

Best regards, Bob

combination they use?

Penzeys Poultry Seasoning A traditional style seasoning
for poultry and stuffing. To make stuffing, use 1 /2 -1
tsp. per Cup. Great for making leftover turkey salad, just
mix 1- 2 tsp. in 1 /2 Cup regular or low-fat mayonnaise
and 1 TB. lemon juice or vinegar. Add a bit of onion and
salt to taste, use to coat 2 Cups turkey or chicken. Hand-
mixed from: sage, white pepper, red and green bell
peppers, lemon peel, savory, rosemary, dill, allspice,
thyme, marjoram and ginger.

I think poultry seasoning needs marjoram, which has an
affinity for poultry, but not in a great quantity. Also
rosemary. 3 parts sage, 1 part thyme, 1 part rosemary, 1/2
part marjoram. Smell it, taste it, adjust it.

I am partial to "Watkins" poultry seasoning.

take care Liz

A single suggestion: Bell's Poultry Seasoning.

My parents swore by it. My grandmother who was a food writer
swore by it now I swear by it. Martha Stewart called it the
secret ingredient for successful stuffing.

According to the box, it's "A blend of rosemary, oregano,
sage, ginger, marjoram,thyme, and pepper", so you could try
mixing some combination of those spices.

Bell's is simply the best. It works in all poultry recipes,
and it's salt-free. You can control the intensity of the
seasoning by adjusting the amount used.

(It's also good for making garlic bread, use it lightly).

I tried to make my own substitute and couldn't come close.
Look for the little yellow box.

Yes you could. But once I ruined a whole batch of stuffing
with this kind of experimenting, and I'm no kitchen slouch.
It occurred to me right then that the $2 or $3 for a box of
Bell's seasoning is one hell of a good value. Based on 7
known ingredients, you could still go through an infinite
number of different proportions until you get it right. They
already have it right.
