Spice rub tips:
* A light coating of
mustard or a little
wine as lower fat alternative.
* Rubs may be applied right before cooking or hours prior to cooking for more intense flavor.
* Rub some of the seasoning mixture under poultry skin for better penetration.
* Only buy the amount of rub you can use in a few months; the fresher your ingredients, the better your results
* Allow about a tablespoon of rub per pound of meat, adjusting this amount to your taste
* Rubs aren't just for meats.
Veggies and salads can get little extra kick from a sprinkle of rub (this is a great way to perk up potatoes).
* Strong rubs are best reserved for stronger flavored fish.
* Sensitive to
MSG? Be sure to check ingredient labels before purchase.
