This spice is a perfect balance of celery, onion, and salt, with just a hint of sweet, and is an excellent spice for beef or chicken. Use it to enhance soups, stews casseroles, and as a seasoning or rub for beef and/or chicken. The phrase beau mode means "good society" in French. No one really knows the origin of the blend or why it's named as it is. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen
