In Maryland, we love our Old Bay Seasoning. Old Bay Seasoning is a blend of herbs and spices made by by McCormick & Company and produced in Maryland. The seasoning mix includes mustard, paprika, celery salt, bay leaf, black pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, mace, cloves, allspice, nutmeg, cardamom and ginger. We steam our crabs and shrimp in Old Bay, we add it to soups and any other recipe where that extra punch is wanted. Today, we added it to our sweet potato fries. The sweetness of the fries and the bold flavor of the spices works so well together. Here’s the simple recipe to make them in less than a half an hour.
