No preservatives. Queen of soul food. Great for slow cooking. Salt free, too! All natural ingredients. I learned about soulful, home cooking from my mom and once of her secrets was patience. Some dishes just taste better when they have plenty of time to cook. That's the key to my secret seasoning. It's a perfect added to those slow cooked dishes like soups, stews and casseroles. The longer you cook with it, the more flavor your dish will have - and what flavor. You won't believe my secret seasoning is salt free! Love, Sylvia. Add in a sprinkle of secret seasoning next time you use your crock pot for a touch of soul. www.sylviassoulfood.com.
