Traditionally made from a blend of dehydrated vegetables, herbs, and spices, they reflect a resourceful approach to cooking, allowing for the preservation of seasonal produce. Today, they are widely available in stores, but homemade versions are gaining popularity for their customizable flavors and lack of preservatives.
