Homemade Maggi Seasoning
Backstory: This versatile seasoning mix can elevate a myriad of dishes, giving them that well-loved umami flavor profile reminiscent of the Maggi seasoning popular around the world.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free version)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional, check for gluten-free if needed)
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (for a cheesy umami flavor)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt (adjust based on preference)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar (or alternative sweetener)
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika (for color and a slight smokiness)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger (optional)
Cooking Instructions:
Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients until well combined.
Store: Transfer the seasoning mix to an airtight container. Store it in a cool, dry place for up to several months.
Usage: Use this homemade seasoning in place of Maggi seasoning in your recipes, adjusting the amount to taste. A tablespoon or two should be a great place to start.
Flavor Profile Explanation: This homemade mix packs a savory punch from the soy sauce and nutritional yeast, while the garlic and onion powders add depth. The slight sweetness from the sugar balances the saltiness, creating a well-rounded seasoning perfect for a variety of dishes.
