Dill is a herb that comes from the parsley family. It has long, feathery leaves and an anise-like flavor with hints of lemon. The seeds are often used in cooking but you can also use them fresh or dried.
This herb is very popular in dressings like Ranch or for pickle recipes. Dill is also great in potato salads, fish dishes, or mixed into a cream cheese spread.
If you want the flavor of dill in your favorite foods, try making this simple dried dill seasoning. All you'll need are some dried herbs that get mixed together in a pinch.
Use dill seasoning on popcorn, potato chips, pretzels, or any other snack you like. It's perfect for bringing out the flavor of dill in a subtle way that can also be customized!
Be sure to try my other spices and seasonings, including Everything Bagel Seasoning, Ranch Seasoning, Old Bay Seasoning, and Baharat, a Middle Eastern spice mix.
For sweet spice blends, I have Chai Spice, Speculoos (Biscoff spice), and Pumpkin Pie Spice.

Cook's Tips
When mixing your spices, be sure to check the expiration dates. Expired spices and seasonings will be less potent in a blend.
Add the dill seasoning to a clean and sanitized jar to keep any bacteria from forming.
Use a funnel to add the spices to the container to prevent any from spilling.
If you can't find onion or garlic flakes, use the regular dried powdered version.
Variations
Add a hint of smoky flavor by using smoked sea salt instead of regular salt.
Add a teaspoon of sugar to balance the salt and natural flavor of the herbs.
Give this blend a kick of spice by adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or red chili flake.

I just made this - it is really tasty! I had been looking for a copycat recipe for Weaver's Campfire Grilling Dust and while this has parlsey (different than original) this has a very similar taste. I am looking forward to our next pork chop/steak night. I've printed the recipe and plan on making this again. Thanks!
