Have you ever been to Carrabba’s Italian Restaurant? I just love their wood fire pizzas and bread dipping sauce. So much so I made my own Copycat Carrabba’s Bread Dip Spices.
Just a basic mix of spices this Copycat Carrabba’s Italian bread dip still wows every time. It can be served with a variety of breads, however I prefer either Italian or focaccia.
This dip isn’t just for breads. The blend will brighten up any pasta dish, especially a plain white or Alfredo sauce, Sprinkle on a salad coupled with a few dashes of red wine vinegar or use to season chicken, beef or pork.
Dry mix can be made ahead and stored at room temperature in an airtight container

Making sure I have this correct.
Garlic powder,onion powder, and course sea salt read 1/2 Tablespoon. Is this correct or should that be a 1/2 of teaspoon. Because there is no 1/2 of Tablespoon that would be 1 1/2 tsp. .I just want to make sure which one is correct before making this awesome dipping sauce. Thank you in advance for your reply

(??) My measuring spoons include a 1/2 Tablespoon. Much quicker than doing 1-1/2 teaspoons.
