italian seasoning

Pasta sauce herbs

Italian seasoning is a dried herb blend used in Mediterranean-style cooking, typically combining oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, and marjoram.

The proportions vary by brand, and some versions include garlic or red pepper flakes.

It's a convenience product for adding herbaceous flavor to pasta sauces, pizzas, and roasted vegetables: Sprinkle some Italian seasoning on the chicken before baking.
