Description

All-purpose Greek seasoning is a typical spice blend from Greek cuisine, used to season a wide variety of dishes, from meats and fish to salads and vegetables. This blend generally includes ingredients such as oregano, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and sometimes herbs like rosemary or marjoram, which offer an aromatic, fresh, and slightly Mediterranean flavor.

Its origin lies in the culinary tradition of Greece, where dried herbs and spices are fundamental for adding character to classic recipes, such as gyros, meat skewers (souvlaki), or Greek salad.

Among its properties, this seasoning provides an intense flavor without the need to add excessive salt, helping to enhance the natural taste of foods. Furthermore, many of its herbs contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that contribute to a healthy diet.

In the Spanish-speaking world, this seasoning can also be found under synonymous names such as Greek spice mix, Greek blend, or simply Mediterranean seasoning, depending on the country and manufacturer. It is recommended for those looking to recreate dishes inspired by Greek cuisine or to give their preparations a fresh and aromatic touch.
