I see too many friends spending ridiculous money on factory-made spice blends marketed specifically to the fitness community. You can make your own salt-free seasonings for a fraction of the cost and they taste far better. Not blending the salt in allows you to control how much and when to add it. For example, I often “dry brine” chicken pieces by generously salting them and placing them in the fridge uncovered for a few hours. You then sprinkle on the salt-free spices just before cooking. It’s is a technique used for southern BBQ and it’s fantastic. Here are a few blends that will serve you well. Oh, and jerk normally has some sugar in it. This one doesn’t. Adding something sweet to whatever dish you make with it is up to you.<\/p>\n
