- Rub onto chicken, pork, or lamb before roasting or grilling for classic French countryside flavor.
- Toss with olive oil and vegetables like potatoes, zucchini, or carrots before roasting to bring out savory, aromatic notes.

- Mix into butter, yogurt, or sour cream for an easy vegetable dip or spread.
Seafood Seasoning
- Sprinkle on fish or shrimp before baking, broiling, or grilling to complement—not mask—natural seafood flavor.
