Deelishus!
This is a beautiful mix of flavor to add to seafood, chicken, pork and even vegetables! Give it a try!
Great Flavor
I love the spice mixture but I was a little upset when I opened my shipment to see that it was packaged in a plastic container! I'm just being picky... But, I guess I had made an assumption and expected that for the price it would have at least been in glass. Ive moved it to my own glass container so it will last longer, taste better and be way more healthy : )
Tasty
Only four stars because the product was expensive for what it is. I was willing to pay because I was trying to duplicate a mixed citrus salt I purchased on The Ile St Louis in Paris many years ago. So...I guess it was a lot less than a trip to Paris and the salt does taste very much like the one I purchased there.
