Great! For those interested - here is the direct quote from Backpacker
Magazine - with due credit for the reference:
Backpacker Magazine, July 2002 issue, Page 39
Item: Tastier camp cuisine with Emeril Lagasse
Heading:
"5 Spices Emeril never leaves home without: salt, pepper, Essence, and
parsley. What is Essence? A mixture of salt, paprika, granulated garlic,
black pepper, onion powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, and cayenne
pepper.
A few pinches of each ingredient in a film canister yields about a week's
worth of Essence"
The above represents the direct quote from the magazine, as with most
chefs,
Emeril does not give the exact proportions. However, I'd take the article
literally - a pinch of each ingredient...... As I said, I'm headed for
Philmont in two weeks. I'm mixing a batch of the stuff. With a
sprinkling of
Essence, and a loud "Bam!", we should be able to kick it up a notch.
YIS,
Frank Fernandez
