MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Steak 'n Shake Seasoning Categories: Herbs, Spices Yield: 12 Servings 4 tb Salt 1 tb Black pepper 1 ts Onion powder 1 ts Garlic powder 2 ts Sugar 1/4 ts Smoked paprika 1/4 ts Turmeric 1 ts Parsley flakes 1/8 ts Soybean oil If you have a mortar and pestle, you can use that for a more finely ground seasoning mix, but a small mixing bowl and spoon is really all you need for this recipe. In a small mixing bowl, combine the salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Add the sugar, paprika, turmeric, parsley and soybean oil. Stir the mixture gently until all seasonings are thoroughly mixed. These spices are all commonly available, and the quantities can be adjusted to your taste. Although the restaurant uses ground pepper and table salt, you can use sea salt and freshly ground black pepper for a more flavorful mixture, if you like. NOTES: Mix 2 1/2 teaspoons of the seasoning with a pound of ground beef before forming hamburgers. Use 1 1/2 teaspoons of seasoning for a pound of potatoes, or more to taste. If you are baking French fries, toss the potatoes with the seasoning mixture before cooking. If you are frying the potatoes, cook them first, then drain and toss with the seasoning mix. Add a tablespoon of the seasoning to perk up a cup of barbecue sauce before basting it on grilled meats. From: http://www.copycatrecipeguide.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM
