2 tbsp. dry mustard
2 tbsp. onion powder
2 tbsp. garlic powder
2 tbsp. paprika
1 tbsp. white pepper
1 tbsp. ground thyme
2 tbsp. crushed basil leaves

Combine all ingredients in a shaker and serve in place of salt. Choose spices which are coarsely ground for a better texture. Makes 2/3 cups. HINT: The garlic powder may be omitted and 1 or 2 teaspoons of turmeric added for a change of flavor and added color. (Makes a great gift.)
