This morning I put a whole chicken in the oven to roast. I wanted to sprinkle some "Poultry Seasoning" on it along with the salt and pepper (I rub it with extra-virgin olive oil first). It's always a problem, unless you have every single spice and ground herb in it's own shaker... I finally came up with a solution. You see, I buy most of my seasonings in bulk, and a few I grow myself.
Here is what I came up with... Behold the magical tea ball! ;)
This is used for making herbal tea, one cup at a time. Do you have one? It is very nice. Well, if you open it up, it looks like this:
I scooped up a small amount of the spice and then I used it to gently sift the spice onto my chicken. I put the excess back in the jar easily. No waste. No struggling to get it spread around. Voila!
