  • 2 teaspoons dried (rubbed) sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder

Method:
 

  1. Add all ingredients to a mortar and grind with a pestle into a fine powder.

If you don't have a mortar and pestle:

Substitute ground herbs, then simply mix all ingredients together. Here are my conversions:
  • 2 teaspoons dried sage = 1 teaspoon ground sage

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano = ½ teaspoon ground oregano

To make the seasoning spicy, add 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes and grind along with the remaining ingredients.

    I wanted to make a recipe that called for pork sausage, but all I had was ground pork. Started searching for a recipe to add spices to the pork to make it "sausage" and found this one. Followed fairly precisely but didn't have time to really grind it up all the way. I thought it would be way too much for the one pound of pork, but it was just right. And really tasty. Family loved it. Saving recipe to use again!

      Hi Anna,
      Yes, you can use this seasoning with ground turkey. I just tested that after I saw your question. I used 93 percent lean ground turkey, mixed in the seasoning, made patties and fried them. It worked great!
