         Title: Mrs. Dash Salt Free Seasoning Blend   
    Categories: Copycat, Spices   
         Yield: 2 /3 cup   
       
       1/4 c  Dried minced onion flakes;   
              - crushed   
         4 ts Dried vegetable flakes;   
              - crushed   
         1 tb Garlic powder   
         1 tb Dried orange peel   
         2 ts Black pepper; coarse ground   
         1 ts Dried parsley   
       1/2 ts Dried basil   
       1/2 ts Dried marjoram   
       1/2 ts Dried oregano   
       1/2 ts Dried savory   
       1/2 ts Dried thyme   
       1/2 ts Cayenne pepper   
       1/2 ts Cumin   
       1/2 ts Coriander   
       1/2 ts Dried mustard   
       1/4 ts Celery seed   
       1/4 ts Kool-Aid unsweetened   
              - lemonade drink mix   
         1 ds Dried rosemary; crushed   
       
     So here's the challenge with this clone recipe: Not only do we have   
     to get the right ratios for nearly 20 different spices, but we also   
     have to come up with a way to get the same lemony tang that makes the   
     real Mrs. Dash the tasty salt-free seasoning blend we've come to know   
     and love over the years. Sure, we could use powdered citric acid that   
     is sometimes found in health food stores, but not everyone is going   
     to have that scary sounding ingredient readily available. Then we   
     still need to figure out the "lemon juice solids" part. Ah, but wait,   
     there's citric acid and lemon juice solids in Kool-Aid unsweetened   
     lemonade drink mix. It's perfect! Add a little of that drink powder   
     to the spice blend and we have a clone that in a blindfolded taste   
     test could fool even Mr. Dash.   
        
     Crush the vegetable flakes with extreme prejudice.   
        
     Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl and stir well. As you   
     stir, crush the leafy spices for a finer blend.   
        
     Store the spice blend in a covered container or a sealed shaker   
     bottle.   
        
     Tips:   
        
     It's best to use a mortar and pestle to crush these sometimes tough   
     little onion and vegetable flakes to about the size of rice, before   
     adding them to the mix. But if you don't have one of those handy   
     kitchen tools, you may also use the back of a spoon and a small bowl,   
     plus a little grease. You know, the elbow kind.
