Old World Central Street

Old World Central Street Seasoning

Old World Central Street Seasoning is our best selling all-purpose seasoning. It is named after the street our Evanston shop is located on--Central Street. This blend is also known as Old World Third Street Seasoning, in our original Milwaukee Spice House (which has been located on Old World Third Street for the last 25 years).

This Central European-style seasoning is made from thirty-two ingredients. Use it on fried or baked chicken or fish, hamburgers, sliced tomatoes, any type of potatoes, steamed vegetables, steaks, ribs, chicken soup, goulash, beef stew, pork roast, sandwiches, eggs, or spanferkel. Use about 1 teaspoon per pound for meats, and 1 teaspoon per cup for soups or stews.

We take great care to mix this old world seasoning the old-fashioned way: each batch is mixed individually, by hand, 1500 times and triple-sifted to ensure just the right flavor and color for your cooking. Original recipe ingredients: Hungarian sweet paprika, coarse flake salt, ground celery seed, garlic, sugar, black pepper, onion, ground dill seed, ground fenugreek seed, ground caraway seed, turmeric, scallions, dill weed, powdered bay leaves, cumin, coriander, ginger, cinnamon, fennel, nutmeg, white pepper, basil, chervil, marjoram, parsley, savory, tarragon, thyme, rosemary, cloves and cardamom.
