A seasoning implement composed of an elongated hollow member loaded with a
seasoning and having a plurality of axially spaced openings for inserting
into a food mass. The hollow member provides a driving force to expel the
seasoning. The hollow member may be a two-component assembly. A first
component includes a hollow shaft defining a plurality of holes and has a
point on one end and is open on its other end. The second component
includes a cap. The two components are mutually engageable in a secure
coupling. The seasoning is in the form of a powder or solid mass composed
of a binder matrix holding a seasoning or mixture of seasonings. The
binder disintegrates during heating of the food to release the seasoning
and enable the implement to expel the seasoning into the food.
