Choosing the Best Italian Season Substitute<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

From a hearty lasagna to a mid-night pizza, Italian cuisine gave us some of the best comfort foods ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet, the key to perfecting Italian dishes is using the right spice blends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if you just ran out of Italian spice mixes?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the end of this article, you\u2019ll be able to choose the best Italian season substitute to complete that mouth-watering dish you\u2019re working on!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Top Five Italian Season Substitute Blends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Italian seasoning flavor profile comes down to equal parts basil, rosemary, marjoram, sage, thyme, and oregano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideally, the best way to replace Italian seasoning in any recipe is to prepare your homemade blend using the same components, either as dried spices or fresh herbs.<\/p>\n\n\n

However, since this can be time-consuming, you might want to resort to premixed blends. So, let\u2019s take a look at some substitutes that could save you in a pinch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Proven\u00e7al Herbs<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Swapping Italian for French doesn\u2019t sound right till you actually give it a shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you go for this blend as your substitute, you get a very similar effect since rosemary, sage, thyme, marjoram, thyme, and basil are all present in Herbes de Provence<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To get as close as possible to the original Italian blend, make sure you pick up a packet that doesn\u2019t have lavender. It smells divine but doesn’t fit in the authentic flavor profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can use celery salt<\/a> to adjust to taste, even some peppers<\/a> if you like it spicier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Zaatar Blends<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Moving to Mediterranean cuisine, zaatar is a herbal blend with nutty richness and a hint of tangy kickback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The main herb in zaatar is thyme. However, the components in the blend can change depending on the regional variation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Most premixed packets in grocery stores have oregano and marjoram in common with the traditional Italian season blend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Be careful, though. It can add traces of a citrus-like flavor to your dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Greek Seasoning<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Greek seasoning is yet another Mediterranean gem that radiates a wonderful earthy aroma with a sweet taste.<\/p>\n\n\n

        \n

        Since Greek and Italian blends have an oregano-heavy base, they can be used interchangeably. However, Greek seasoning saves you the trouble of adding garlic and onion spices to the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        This works very well if you want to marinate poultry or meat<\/a> with the spice blend before cooking. It complements many hearty protein flavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        1. Pizza Seasoning<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          If you want to stay in the same cuisine and flavor profile, pizza seasoning might be the right Italian season substitute for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Pizza seasoning has onions, garlic, and fennel over the traditional Italian seasoning blends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Sure, they\u2019re not the same thing, but the similarity is close enough. Some people might even do the opposite, using the Italian season for pizza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          1. Salad Dressing Packets<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Salad dressing packets with dried herbs can work as a replacement for Italian seasoning blends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            You can just pop open one of those bad boys and sprinkle it on your dish till you\u2019re satisfied with the flavor intensity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            It sounds weird and untraditional. However, it\u2019s convenient enough when you have to eat on the go but still want that Italian kick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
