DESIGNA SEASONINGS . . . for all seasons!
A unique seasoning sensation from www.designasausage.com

A new concept in seasoning, exclusive to www.designasausage,com. Specially blended after hours of creation in the kitchen and high tech laboratories, these seasonings are not only fantastic with sausage and burger making - but also can be used in a variety of ways.

Manufactured to ISO 9001 standards and packed in hygienic alufoil bags, to keep the flavour and aroma at its best. Free from MSG, Artificial flavours and Colourants there is a choice of over 40 (gluten free) seasonings. Restaurants, Caterers and Manufactures are also catered for with packaging ranging from 200g to 25kg.

Sausages and Burgers

Use 30 - 40gm of Designa Seasonings to each 1kg of sausage or burger meat to make them stand out from the crowd. These Designa Seasonings have been specially prepared to take the stress out of trying to create the right balance of herbs and spices. Less mistakes - more success. Traditional sausage mixes from the UK include Cumberland, Lincolnshire, Macclesfield, Sage Seasoning and Welsh Leek Seasoning.

Widening the horizons you can find seasonings from South African Boerewors, Droewors; German Frikkadelle, Frankfurter & Bratwurst; Spanish Chorizzo to French Toulouse, Morrocan Merguez and Yugoslavian Cevapcici.

Liquid Marinades

Combine 1 tablespoon of Designa Seasoning with 2 tablespoons of water and 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil. Mix well. Coat the meat, fish or vegetables in this tasty marinade and place in the fridge a minimum of 2 hours - for scrumptious juicy results. Try Tikka with Chicken pieces or Pork Grill with some chunky Pork Chops.

Dry Rubs

Lightly coat your meat, fish or vegetables in Designa Seasonings and allow to rest in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours. When cooked, you can sink your teeth into a delicious crispy flavoursome feast. Steak is superb with Pepper Exotica. A meld of Green, Rose, White and Black ground peppercorns. Not only does it give flavour but the seasonings tenderise the meat at the same time.

Roasts

Lightly sprinkle some of the Designa Seasoning over the meat, fish or vegetables before roasting for an added appetizing dimension. The best ever Lamb Roast is coated with Gyros Spice.

Casseroles and Soups

Shake a little Designa Seasoning into your winter warming dish and savour the compliments. Garlic and Herb stirred into Broccoli and Stilton soup makes a difference beyond belief. Lemon Basil compliments fish pie with a subtle delicate flavour.

Sauces

Fry one onion in a little oil until soft. Add 2 tablespoons of Designa Seasoning and fry for another minute. Add a can of chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes before serving. Drape over mashed potato, rice or fish. Cajun is particularly good with this sauce and gives Fajitas a spicy aromatic kick.

Dips

Mix 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, crème fraiche, yoghurt or sour cream with 1 teaspoon of Designa Seasoning. Serve with crisps, vegetable sticks or hot chips. Mix Garden Mint with Yoghurt for a perfect Riaita with curry or poppadums and American BBQ for crisps, vegetables and hot chips.

Last - but not least are the irresistible ROAST ONION FLAKES.

Mix into mashed potato, sprinkle into Yorkshire pudding mix, spread onto cream cheese in sandwiches, toss into Salads, add to sausage or burger meat or blend into soups and casseroles. Never be without them in your larder.!
