Notes

The quantities listed for this basic recipe are approximate. Use what you have on hand and add or subtract as you like. Some recipes call for rosemary but be careful, too much can be overpowering. Add as much salt as you like, but itdoesn't need any. For an Asian flavor add some cinnamon, nutmeg, curry powder or five-spice powder. For Southwest flavor add some cumin and chili powder.
