Learn how to make the most delicious easy Homemade Italian Seasoning Recipe that is the best Italian seasoning blend. SO flavorful and can be used in any recipes calling for Italian seasoning. Soups, stews, loaves, veggie burgers, vegan meatballs, etc.
HOMEMADE ITALIAN SEASONING RECIPE
I have created a few different Italian seasoning recipes, both here on the blog and in my cookbook. But this one here is my absolute best! The flavor is incredible and brings alive anything you add to it. Just simply use it in any recipe calling for Italian seasoning.
Many blends in the stores add salt or red pepper flakes, which can ruin a lot of recipes. Also, sometimes people prefer to have their own mixes on hand, simply because they are fresher or taste better.
As many of you know by now, I make a lot of my own spice blends for that very reason. I keep them authentic enough to replace standard spice mixes so they will work for any recipe, but also improving the overall flavor with a little extra oomph.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED
- Dried basil
- Dried oregano
- Dried marjoram
- Dried thyme
- Dried rosemary
- Dried ground sage
HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE ITALIAN SEASONING
Add all of the dried herbs to a bowl and whisk very well or to a small jar with a lid and shake vigorously. I prefer the jar option, as you can really shake it good and get it well mixed.

This really is the closest to Italian seasoning. I use it in a lot of recipes for vegans. I have all the spices. Glad to have you guide me with this.

I just finished my first batch of Italian seasoning and couldn’t find the recipe in your cookbook, so I am happy to see it on your site. I make my own sauce with fully ripened tomatoes, onion, garlic, some tomato paste, and a little water if needed. I just add a couple of tablespoons of your seasoning and that’s it. Plus salt of course. It takes the guesswork out of it and I don’t have to bring out all of the individual spices. Thanks!
