Lose The Salt!

by Julie Fletcher on April 14th, 2008

I shared this recipe for a great seasoning with my diabetic readers and I thought that it would make a great addition here at Robust Cooking. We all consume more sodium then we really need on a day to day basis. Sodium is found in large amounts in processed foods, so the addition of table salt on our foods in addition to the sodium content already present can be very bad for our health.

If you are trying to lower your sodium intake, try this seasoning. It makes about 3 cups and can be stored for about 10 weeks in the fridge. It will last longer if placed in an airtight bag in the freezer. Use a low sodium parmesean cheese or a vegan cheese.

Superb Seasoning

*2 cups parmesan cheese
*½ cup sesame seed
*½ teaspoon garlic salt
*1 tablespoon dried, minced onion
*2 tablespoons parsley (dried)
*½ teaspoon dill seed
*2 tablespoons poppy seed
*3 tables spoons celery seed
*2 teaspoon sweet paprika
*½ teaspoon black pepper

Pour all ingredients into a bowl and mix very well. Make sure everything is evenly mixed, then pour part into a container with a tight fitting lid. I like to use an empty herb shaker container. Place the rest into a Ziploc bag and store in the fridge.

Use this seasoning in place of salt on salads, baked potatoes, and more.
