Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 Bay leaves -- finely
Chopped
4 tb Oregano
4 tb Onion powder
4 ts Marjoram
4 ts Basil leaves
4 ts Winter savory -- ground
4 ts Garlic powder
2 ts Rosemary leaves --
1 t Sage
1 t Thyme
1 t Black pepper -- ground
1 tb Lemon zest -- dried

The recipe is for dried herbs. If you have your own
herb garden, do try drying your own. They will dry in
seconds in a microwave, or in a longer time in a warm
oven (about 180 degrees). Leave the oven door
slilghtly ajar to allow moisture escape.

Unless you have not time and patience that I have, buy
the onion and garlic powders. I have tried chopping my
own fresh garlic and onion, but they take too long to
dry for me.

Mix and crush to a coarse powder with a mortar and
pestle or a small blender or food processor.

The Herb Blend is delicious on slald greens, on sliced
tomatoes and cucumbers, on fish, hamburgers, meat
loaves, steaks, omelets, etc. Try mixing the Herb
Blend with a stick of butter or margarine. Let stand
in refrigerator for a day of two for good flavor. Use
Herbed butter on vegetables, breads, meats, fish, etc.
