Lawry's The Original Seasoned Salt * Net WT. 2 lbs. 8 oz (40 oz) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Note: Lawry's contains sugar, soy lecithin (an additive), tricalcium phosphate (an additive to prevents caking) and a large amount of sodium. I prefer to purchase a salt seasoning such as Stephanie's Salt Seasonings which is all natural, no fillers, additives, no MSG and is available with a salt substitute. And best all of it has 4 varieties of salt- sea salt, kosher, lite and salt substitute. What else could you ask for?

Shake on the Original Seasoned Salt, a unique blend of slat, herbs and spices. It adds flavor and excitement that ordinary slat cannot match. Try Lawry?s Seasoned Salt instead of salt. The difference is delicious! .................................... Shake on beef, pork and poultry before and after cooking. For great burgers, season any ground meat. Add to french fries, baked or mash potatoes. Perk up popcorn, any style eggs, rice and pasta dishes. Sprinkle on salads, vegetables, soups and sauces...........................Rotisserie Style Chicken Recipe: Rub 2 Tbsp. Olive Oil over 4 whole Chicken. Combine 1 Tbsp. Lawry?s Seasoned Salt and 1 tsp. Lawry?s Seasoned Pepper and sprinkle over outside and inside cavity of chicken. Roast in 375ºF oven until juices run clear and thickest thigh joint reaches 175ºF, about 1 hour 20 minutes. (Serves 8)

Sun Brand Madras Curry Powder, 16 Ounce Cans (Pack of 4) Review

Sun Brand Madras Curry Powder, 16 Ounce Cans (Pack of 4)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Although the Sun Brand Madras curry powder tastes a little different from other brands that were listed on Amazon a couple of years ago, this stuff is still excellent! It has a slightly deeper orange hue than other Madras curries I've come across, so don't be too surprised if your curry isn't as yellow. If you purchased the Roland curries (red, cylindrical container; also in 1 pound lots), be aware that the Sun Brand is a little saltier and spicier so you won't need to use as much!
I love making curried chicken legs with an apple jelly-based sauce, and this brand of powder goes just as well as the others I've tried. If you plan on following recipes from Cuisine at Home and other similar publications, you're going to need a *lot* of curry, and purchasing through Amazon is the best (and cheapest) method available. I typically purchase between 4 and 8 pounds every year or two from Amazon, and nothing makes for a better method of entertaining guests than an exotic (but not quite Indian) dish with an American twist!
Edit: It seems some other reviews mention the strong, salty flavor of this curry. I don't notice it so much for what I use it for, but if you're trying to watch your sodium intake, be aware that this curry might contain FAR more sodium than you'd expect. I'd strongly recommend looking for the Roland Madras curry (you can search for that exact term--but be aware that it isn't often listed because it's VERY popular stuff) as it is of superior quality and flavor. This stuff makes an excellent substitute, though.
Also, I neglected to notice a comment to my review some one year ago requesting the recipe I mentioned. Assuming I don't get slapped with a DMCA take down by the magazine I borrowed it from (and modified), I've attached it in the comments to this review.
Enjoy!

Sun Brand Madras curry powder is a low-calorie way to season your favorite recipes. Use this piquant and peppery blend of herbs and spices in braises, sauces and to create an intensely flavored oil. Add to yogurt or sour cream for a zesty marinade. We love the simple curry recipe printed on the side of the tin. This British Indian curry spice blend is cholesterol free, fat free, and contains no artificial coloring.

This product it just spectatular. We tried it about twenty years ago in Nebraska. I looked for it in the stores for years, but only recently thought to check the Internet. Low and behold there it was. Same company, several new choices in products. We chose the chicken turkey, and pork seasoning. Then, later I ordered the seasoning salt as well. All came promptly and are just as tasty as they were in the 1980's no wonder Johnny's Dock is still alive and well in Tacoma Washington.

You only need 1 tsp. for 8oz. water,so its a great deal! Think about switching, you'll be glad you did,I promise!

Superior Touch Better Than Bouillon Beef Base Review

Superior Touch Better Than Bouillon Beef Base
Average Reviews:

I discovered this product about a year ago and have not used dehydrated boullion since. It's so convenient to make -- just boil the amount of water you need and add the appropriate amount of base. It blends quickly too. No more undissolved bouillon pebbles in the bottom of the broth!
We're a family of 2 so I was worried that they'd go bad on me before I had a chance to use it all, but I've had open jars stored in the fridge for a few months at a time and have never had a problem. I've also purchased the chicken base and am just as pleased. Wonderful products!

I discovered this seasoning ten years ago. A local grocery store sold this item on a regular basis. When they closed I tried searching other stores with no luck. I was thrilled to find it on Amazon.

Brushed Stainless Steel Salt Cellar with Spoon Review

Brushed Stainless Steel Salt Cellar with Spoon
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great little salt cellar. Unfortunately in this case the key word is little. Really little. If a half dozen of them were purchased so that each person at a dinner party could have their own little personal salt cellar, then I suppose they would be good for that, but as something to store salt in next to the stove for easy use and access, it's just not big enough. Also the lid just kind of sits on top and doesn't really have any ridge to speak of to hold it in place.

Silhouette Salt and Pepper Set Review

Silhouette Salt and Pepper Set
Average Reviews:

This shaker appears to be of solid quality and good design, but in my opinion it got hit by the shrink ray. Perhaps I didn't pay close attention to the listed specs but it still seems like it falls short of the expected volume one would assume.
Also, even proportionate to it's size the pepper comes out VERY slowly, meaning if you want more than a hint of pepper, you'll be shaking for longer than you'd like.
On the plus side, the rubber base is a nice touch and I love being able to see how much is left.

Pink stoneware Salt Pig and Spoon Salt Keeper Review

Pink stoneware Salt Pig and Spoon Salt Keeper
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Information about salt pigs from America's Test Kitchen / Cooksillustrated.com:
"A search of the Web turned up ceramic vessels identical in shape and differing only in color. This one, about 4 inches wide and 5 inches tall, holds about half a pound of salt. The sites we checked indicated that the knob on top is for carrying and that the large, round opening provides easy access to the salt. It's also thought that the hooded shape keeps moisture from collecting on the salt. One of our editors left this salt pig out on her kitchen counter for a couple of months last summer (which included a couple of very humid weeks) and the salt did indeed remain dry, with no clumping whatsoever. Its hood distinguishes the salt pig from the salt cellar, which is generally a small, open bowl.
We couldn't help but wonder how the salt "pig" got its name and so contacted a couple of lexicographers, one of whom -- George H. Goebel, an editor of the Dictionary of American Regional English at the University of Wisconsin, Madison -- made his way to the Scottish National Dictionary. This reference indicated that this use of "pig" is an old one found mostly in Scots and northern English dialect, where it means an earthenware vessel, specifically "a pot, jar, pitcher, [or] crock," which of course fits the notion of a salt pig very nicely. (A couple of the Web sites ventured that the hooded opening looks like a pig's snout.) Goebel added that according to the same dictionary, "pig" or "penny pig" can mean "an earthenware money-box, now sometimes made in the form of the animal 'pig,'" while the "piggy" in "piggy bank" originally meant "made of earthenware." The pig shape was apparently a visual pun."
The review is referring to a salt pig they found at the King Arthur Flour website, but this one and others listed on Amazon.com are half price or less compared to King Arthur's. This one is just too cute cuz it's got ears and a tail. I am ordering one, because I like to keep salt handy in my food prep area, where I can just scoop it with a measuring spoon. I had been using a small gladware bowl with lid, but this is just much cuter. So, it's not an essential, but hey, sometimes this garde manger thinks it's fun to have cute, unique, cool tools in the kitchen. Makes the work even more fun.

I love the colors and textures of Emile Henry products, and this one is the same as I have come to expect. It is another nice color to add to me kitchen. I also prefer the 45 degree decline with the wide opening, over some other options that are 90 degrees and one size through the entire opening. I find this more easily accessible to my larger hands than the other options.

The Salt Pig is a charming and handy way to keep your favorite salt at-hand. The wide opening accommodates even the largest of hands, and the slightly arched hood helps keep your salt free of food debris while cooking. The simple, yet classic shape of this piece is further emphasized by the vibrant colors and deep hues of the glazes.

Le Creuset Salt Crock Review

Le Creuset Salt Crock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I absolutely love this salt crock and the cobalt blue goes with the rest of my kitchen. I am one of those people who seldom, if ever, actually measure things, in particular salt, while I am cooking; everything is either a pinch or a dash. This crock works wonderful for my style of cooking. It is heavy enough that I do not need to worry about tipping it and it sure works much better than the little dish I use to use. The workmanship and designed on this is quite good and when necessary, which is seldom, it is very easy to clean. I have other products from this company and have been happy with all of them.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Le Creuset Salt Crock

A lovely addition to any kitchen collection, this 10-ounce old-world-style salt crock features a round shape with a large side opening that provides easy access to salt or other spices and seasonings during cooking. The stoneware crock, which measures approximately 5 by 4-4/5 by 6 inches, provides a knob on top for easy transport, Le Creuset's signature concentric rings, and the Le Creuset name in raised letters for an added touch of charm.
Le Creuset's line of stoneware comes with a hard-wearing, impermeable finish fired at temperatures as high as 2192 degrees F. With a porosity level of less than 1 percent, it blocks moisture absorption, which can lead to cracking, crazing, and rippling along the interior. Its non-porous construction also resists odors, scratching, and staining for hygienic use and optimal performance. Even more, its high-quality enamel protects against metal marks and other damage, which means it's safe to use with knives. Best of all, the glaze on the exterior makes the stoneware items fun to mix and match with other coordinating Le Creuset pieces (sold separately), while a neutral-colored glaze on the inside offers an optimal palette for food presentation. And thanks to an unmatched thermal resistance from -65 degrees F to 500 degrees F, Le Creuset stoneware moves effortlessly from the microwave or oven (or under the broiler) to the table for serving to the refrigerator or freezer for storing leftovers. When finished, it cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher.
