Seasoned Salt

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

I’m so sorry, Jerseycook – I didn’t notice I had posts! Yes, you can substitute cornstarch for the arrowroot powder and yes, it is just to prevent clumping. I use arrowroot because of my corn allergies. In this case, you can substitute it one-for-one, but in my other baking recipes to be posted in the future, the ratio is 2 teaspoons of cornstarch per 1 Tablespoon of arrowroot powder.

Jerseycook, I’m pretty sure the arrowroot is to prevent clumping, in that case you could use cornstarch instead. Please correct me if I’m wrong,

I’m so excited about this because I have such problems with MSG! Thanks for coming up with this!

Is the arrowroot powder there just to keep it from clumping? Could I substitute cornstarch?

Thanks for sharing how to make our own seasonings! I really like being able to make my own so it doesn’t have all the ‘bad’ stuff in it. I will use this a lot!
