I told this story elsewhere on my site, about a Cassoulet I tried from one of Michael Chiarello‘s recipes. Well, frankly, the Cassoulet was a big hiss-boo. What wasn’t was the Brussels Sprouts sprinkled with this fantastic Michael Chiarello’s Fennel Spice Rub. (They were originally a part of the cassoulet.) Since then, I’ve used the Fennel Spice Rub over and over in different dishes and recipes.

Cook’s published this Jojo Spice Blend for their wonderful Jojos. If you’re not familiar, they’re wonderful, battered, deep-fried potato wedges – and unfortunately, they aren’t on this blog. But the Jojo Spice blend is!

Are you a lover of Cajun food? I am. I love Cajun Spices and Seasonings and this is my favorite Cajun Spice Blend. It’s a little spicy, yes, but has so many different layers of flavor. It’s not just all about the heat.

As my kids have and are? transitioned on to adulthood, what spices and herbs they should have in their kitchen, the Essential Herbs & Spices, comes up a surprising number of times. And not just with my kids, but with their friends, too. Many don’t cook much, but get settled into their own places and realize they have to start doing some cooking at home or their budgets don’t stretch too far. At the same time, they don’t know what they need to have around at home to start – and have minimal to no budget to work with.
