This spice blend is a delicious blend of the best Italian herbs with some extra zing and pop by adding organic lemon peel and spearmint.
     Also added a healthy dollop of ground fennel seed which is a powerful antioxidant, one study actually found it to be more powerful than Vitamin E which has long held the prize in defeating  those free radicals which damage cells and DNA. 
     But aside from the health benefits of fennel, which are many, it is really a delicious herb. Some say it is an acquired taste as it does have a slight licorice taste to it, but when combined with other equally delicious herbs it blends in beautifully adding a bit of tongue tingling goodness to all dishes. 
     Perfect spice blend to add to all seafood dishes, chicken, pork and homemade sausage recipes.
