  • 2 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons dried marjoram
  • 2 tablespoons dried basil
  • 4 teaspoons dried savory
  • 2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
  • 2 teaspoons rubbed sage
  • BISCUITS:

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  1. Combine seasoning mix ingredients. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place.
  2. For biscuits, saute 1 tablespoon mix and onion in 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet until onion is tender; set aside.
  3. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Combine egg, milk and onion mixture; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
