Onera Original Seasoning. The "secret" ingredient wasn't so secret at all. Perfect in chicken salad but also as a seasoning on all kinds of stuff, including homemade french fries.
If you live in Utah, it's easy to get - they sell it at "The Store" (of which there are a few locations). A woman at "The Store" said they also sell it at Harmon's, Smith's, etc. It's located back by the butcher.
If you are like most of us non-Utah people, you have to order it online. One of my awesome readers (thanks working gal!) found a website for Onera Blended Spices. Onera recently changed ownership, which is why the labels look different.

ReplyDeleteI want this, too! Awesome. I love giveaways.
ReplyDeleteDid someone say giveaway?
ReplyDeletewho can pass up a giveaway? so I've never tried meier's chicken salad, but the chicken salad from "the store" is awesome. i wonder if they use in theirs as well? i hope i win! i don't want to wait until my next trip to slc to try this out
ReplyDeleteA mom, pregnant, nauseous, blogging, and doing a give-a-way, you get a gold star!
ReplyDeleteI like to think of myself as the condiment/spice queen, I'll try anything! Thanks for the info!
kelly - I'm sure it's the same chicken salad...there's a meier's meats butcher in The Store, so it's gotta be! :)
ReplyDeletethanks for the gold star, stephanie! :)
I have seen this in recipes and things before but I've never tried it. Sign me up!
ReplyDeleteFunny how one secret ingredient changes a whole basic recipe. I worked at a hotel and the chef swore by putting a little worcestershire sauce in his chicken salad. It was pretty good, too!
ReplyDeleteYummy!!!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...my first blog post (I know, I'm living in the dark ages). Seasoning is a good thing; I'm always up for a free bit of something to spice up my life. Great site, Jane!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great site. I also love your inks!
ReplyDeleteI loce this blog!

I am a little confused as to why I lived in Utah, and Matt is from Utah and I am not aware of this secret ingredient. I'm hoping to win the give-away, but if not, I'm going to Salt Lake in a couple weeks and I might just have to pick it up. :) You have such awesome tips! Thanks, Jane!
ReplyDeleteI found it online - and they'll even send out free samples - for those who don't win this giveaway.

working gal...why didn't I find that web address? I SWEAR I looked for it! THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip! Can't wait to try Onera! Don't enter me in the drawing, I live in SLC, so I'll just go buy it. I have to ask though...what/where is "the store"? I'm obviously not a native, because I've never heard of "the store".
ReplyDeleteI'm not too chicken to make chicken salad. Pick me!
ReplyDeletecount me in!!!
ReplyDeleteeveryone loves a good giveaway!
ReplyDeletethanks for doing this.

Is that website the same seasoning? Because the pic Jane posted doesn't match the pic from the site (I was there earlier today), and it's from Oregon. Does anyone know if it's the same? Thanks
ReplyDeleteamy from utah...the only "The Store" that I've been to is on 2050 E 6200 S. I think there are a few others (maybe murray and holladay?)...it is a cool grocery store - smaller, cool stuff, good butcher, yummy prepared foods...you should check it out!
ReplyDeleteby the way - I'm getting to the bottom of whether or not the onera website is the same company as the spice I have... i'll let you all know as soon as I've figured it out!
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling lucky! Hi Jane and congratulations, by the way!
ReplyDeletei love the site ~ thanks for the entry!
ReplyDeleteYea, I can't believe that I'm finally using this site. It's so awesome! I'm going to try out the chicken salad, but I need the secret ingredient first! (hint, hint) I'm also going to try out the chocolate bread pudding this weekend! Thanks for all the great ideas! Love ya Jane! Can't wait to see you this summer.
ReplyDeleteSign me up please! Thanks Jane--a great idea and I sure hope I win!
ReplyDeleteWould love to be considered. I love chicken salad. Congratulations on the baby!
ReplyDeleteI thought curry was the best spice in chicken salsd but I was glad to be wrong..Yah!!!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try it! We love cooking in our house. (I'm Dottie LaPierre's daughter...she loves your website and recommended it to us).
ReplyDeleteThanks Jane, I'll have to take a drive out to The Store. I live downtown so it's not real close, but it sounds like it's worth the drive to check it out at least once.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued. I would love to try this.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this and try it out! Please pick me!
