If the holidays bring out the cook in you but your pantry isn’t stocked with every ingredient in your favorite recipes, there’s a chance you have what you need. McCormick Spices offers these suggestions for quick flavor substitutes:
– You can substitute 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder for 1 medium-sized clove of garlic or 3 tablespoons dried minced onion or 2 1/2 teaspoons onion powder for 1/2 cup chopped onion.
– When baking, if you need 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon peel or 1 teaspoon freshly grated orange peel, you can substitute 1 teaspoon lemon or orange extract, respectively.
– If you need 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning, use 3/4 teaspoon ground sage plus 1/4 teaspoon ground thyme.
