Greek Bread Dip by S.A.L.T. Sisters

Uses:  Mix 1 tablespoon with 1/4 cup olive oil and let sit for half an hour to allow the herbs and spices to soften.  A tablespoon of freshly grated parmesan cheese stirred in makes this insanely good.  Toss with olives, tomatoes, feta cheese and cucumber for a delicious Greek salad, rub on fish or chicken before grilling, or serve with warm slices of fresh bread.
