“No-Nightshade” Spicy Italian Sausage Seasoning

Mix these directly into your 20 oz of ground pork before browning it.

• 1 tsp Fennel seeds (Crucial—toast them in a dry pan for 1 min and lightly crush them for maximum flavor)​
• 1 tsp Freshly cracked black pepper (This provides the “heat” safely)​
• 1 tsp Kosher salt
• 1 tsp Garlic powder (or 2 minced fresh cloves)​
• 1/2 tsp Onion powder​
• 1 tsp Dried Oregano​
• 1/4 tsp White pepper (Optional: adds a sharper, different kind of heat than black pepper)​
• 1 tbsp White wine or apple cider vinegar (Added while cooking to deglaze and add “bite”)
