Nikki Talks Food’s Pro Seasoning enjoyed its inaugural launch this year to local critic praise by the Tallahassee Table and the Tallahassee Foodie Group on Facebook. It is first in a line of gourmet, usable and healthy products
that help you cook like a professional chef.
Pro Seasoning is a perfectly balanced blend of Himalayan pink salt, black pepper, garlic and other spices. Chef Nikki uses this perfect on-hand spice blend for all purposes. It was created to be kept right next to your stove.
Enjoy Pro Seasoning on meat, chicken, fish, eggs, vegetables, and breads before and after cooking. Use in place of salt and pepper while at the table. Pro Seasoning helps you cook like a Pro!
