Lemon Pepper Seasoning

Store in an airtight container away from heat, light, and moisture to preserve flavor and prevent clumping. The lemon zest will fade over time; use within 6–12 months for best flavor.

Add at the end of cooking or to finished dishes to preserve the bright lemon flavor.

Works especially well on grilled or roasted chicken, fish, and vegetables.

If your blend is clumpy, stir in a few grains of uncooked rice to absorb moisture, then remove before use.

Adjust salt content in your recipe since this blend already contains salt.

Chicken, fish, and seafood

Roasted vegetables (broccoli, asparagus, zucchini)

Grains and rice dishes

Potatoes and root vegetables

Salads and vinaigrettes

Adding it early to long-cooking dishes—the lemon flavor can fade. Use toward the end.

Forgetting to account for the salt already in the blend, leading to over-seasoning.

Storing near heat or sunlight, which dulls the citrus notes quickly.
