Homemade Herb and Spice BlendsAccent Seasoning can be made without the MSG, which many believe to be harmful. This is a Cajun version, but you could adjust the heat for your own liking.

Ingredients:

Directions:

Mix all ingredients in a blender except the salt, do not breath in the dust. Add the salt last and blend until it is a uniform color.

Some people are sensitive to MSG and may have a reaction to it. If you are concerned, search the internet for monosodium glutamate and you will get the latest information.

It's a Dilly

Step 1
Yes, but it's a different recipe than The McCormick's version. Engage says it made the original. I wrote to Mc Cormick's asking for the ingredients; maybe I'll get an answer.
