Reddit mentions: The best greek seasonings

I use this Greek seasoning and love it! Everyone I ever make chicken for loves it too!

Cavenders Seasoning Greek, 8 oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004H81QOA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_lToGDb063QS2E

Just a heads up, I rub olive oil on first to get the seasoning to stick well.

I use Cavendar's seasoning, a couple strong dashes of Worchestershire, and fresh pepper, salt to taste.

Cavenders has MSG, so that plus the Worchestershire has the umami covered. Cavenders also compliments the flavor of breakfast sausage well.

If it was my choice, the amount of ground pepper added would border on obscene...but my wife is not a fan of pepper or spicy food so I just have to add more to my own once it is plated.

I've seen it for sale by the canister at my local supermarket. I'm sure you could call around and find it... an asian market might be more likely to carry it, as it's often used in asian food. Or just buy some right off amazon... https://www.amazon.com/Marshalls-Creek-Spices-Msg-Ounce/dp/B000N8EV8G

It's not terribly hard to get your hands on it. :)

I make Greek chicken with mine. Chicken thighs, coated with olive oil and this Greek seasoning (although I've heard the one from Cavendar is good, too). Bake at 350 until cooked through, usually 30ish minutes. Top with fresh squeezed lemon juice and place halved lemons on serving dish as garnish. Serve with tzatziki.

Feta stuffed Greek meatballs with tzatziki!

Toss a bunch of Cavender's Greek seasoning into your ground meat of choice (ground beef/lamb blend for extra authenticity), roll the balls around however much feta you want inside your meatball, bake for ~25 minutes at 400, serve with tzatziki, salad, whatever you like.

I like to spear them with these fancy-ass bamboo toothpicks and serve them as appetizers.

Cavender's All Purpose Greek Seasoning

I get mine at Safeway... It is great on lemon ribs (greek style) or vegetables.

This sounds great. I'll have to try it out next week. Being a native of St. Louis, I'll use Cavender's Greek rub, and Maul's BBQ sauce.

I'm really not trying to split hairs here, but what is considered a large quantity of MSG? Are we talking about literally eating a huge jar of straight MSG or are we looking at the effects of a strict fast food/boxed food diet that so many of people have (where most of what you consume comes prepackaged or in a box and MSG is in every ingredient list)? I'm genuinely curious here because I've always associated my headaches and stomach upset that I get when eating out or boxed food with the MSG and I've got a friend who is terrified of feeding MSG to her kids because of neurotoxins.
I know about umami and the history of glutamates, but how different is this from the jars of MSG or the additives in boxed food?

Please tell me you used Cavender's seasoning for those meatballs! Makes all the difference in the world!!

Amazon sells huge containers at a fraction of the cost of corner store prices.

As much as I'm not a fan of the stuff, MSG is probably the reason you're not quite there on the taste... Like other posters have said, the powder ones with a mix of dairy and then a sprinkle of MSG would probably be the way to get the taste you're looking for

There's lots of things you can use that are naturally high in MSG which you may find in bulk stores, supplement stores, specialty stores. Yeast extracts, soup bases, bullion. Kombu, dashi, soy sauce, bonito Flake for asian flavour dishes.

also you can just buy some on Amazon? https://www.amazon.ca/Marshalls-Creek-Spices-Msg-Ounce/dp/B000N8EV8G

Cavender's

And for the yogurt dip, I just use this. plus lemon juice.

There's so much in a packet (and you get 2) that this will last you for years.

Very.

MSG, I believe I saw it in a grocery store I think CVS or Vons I can't remember. It's also available here http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000N8EV8G/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/183-7238995-0328866

Has anyone mentioned Maggi seasoning?

Just throw it in a spice mix or drop a bit in whatever sauce you're making.

Ingredients: MSG

Description: No MSG

I grew up with the stuff in my house. It's great on steaks and burgers. My mom hated the MSG scare and all the problems with finding it. Unfortunately we were living in New Mexico and had no Asian markets to go to, so we went without until we moved to Washington state. To this day, she has a big bottle of MSG and Kitchen Bouquet at all times. They are both amazing flavor enhancers. As my mom told me, people she knew that had an aversion to the name still loved her cooking and never knew what her secrets were. She knew how to cook with umami before she knew it had a name.

Knorr Aromat is a half decent substitute. Most supermarkets have it.

Otherwise chicken salt is available from Ocado who will deliver it to your door. Along with Shapes, TimTams and that horrible Vegimite crap.

The hell are you on about? I can get a jar from Amazon if I don't feel like going to the grocery store.
