I had homemade potato chips last night sprinkled with Old Bay Seasoning. For those of you who have not experienced it on seafood (or potato chips), it is quite the delight. It should be part of everyone's kitchen spice rack. What's in it? Here's what the Old Bay web site has listed:
CELERY SALT (SALT, CELERY SEED), SPICES (INCLUDING MUSTARD, RED PEPPER, BLACK PEPPER, BAY [LAUREL] LEAVES, CLOVES, ALLSPICE [PIMENTO], GINGER, MACE, CARDAMOM, CINNAMON) AND PAPRIKA.
Sounds good, I'll try to find it in the American shop. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOld Bay was always my favorite general spice mix for poultry, fish, soups, and anything even vaguely resembling a casserole or a stuffing. I used it routinely when I lived in NY, PA, and Georgia ... I even took a case of it with me when I moved the wilds of New Mexico. It's not commonly available here in MA - at least not where I shop; but your mentioning it may lead me to an on-line search for a source.
