How to Make Beau Monde Seasoning

  2. Sift the ground bay leaf and celery seed into a bowl to remove any larger pieces.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon of dried thyme, 1 tablespoon of dried parsley, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to the bowl.
  4. Thoroughly combine all ingredients.
  5. Transfer the mixture to an airtight jar. Shake well to ensure even distribution.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
