Happy Friday everyone! Hope your week has been wonderful. I promised I would share with you my recipe for the Mediterranean Spice Rub and give you a few hints on packaging it beautifully…so here goes…
This rub is sure to be a hit with your friends and family! It’s a snap to make and tastes good on just about everything! Better yet, it’s inexpensive to create.
Lori Brock’s Mediterranean Rub Recipe
*Montreal Steak Seasoning– ½ ratio
*Tarragon
*Oregano
*Dill
*Thyme
*Rosemary
*Coarse salt –can also be cut to ½ ratio
*Lemon Pepper
Mix equal parts of all the above ingredients – except for the Montreal Steak seasoning, use a 1/2 ratio.
I package the rub in airtight glass jars from Ikea. Click here to see the jars. It is great to put a beautiful tag on it that lists the spices and how it can be used. This tasty rub can be used on fish, poultry, beef or pork and makes a wonderful addition to soups and sauces. The key to using this as a rub is to use enough to lightly cover the roast or fish, but not too thick as it has quite a bit of pepper in it.
Here are some fabulous ideas for creative DIY gift wrapping. Gotta make your Rub look gorgeous and special!
Including a little metal or wood scoop is a great addition. Layering the spices creates a cool effect too!
Think outside the box and make your gift personal by adding custom printed labels or crafty embellishments like twine, ribbon or even clothes pins! Such a cute idea.
