Directions

Step 1

Measure out all the ingredients into a small mixing bowl or directly into a jar with a lid.

Step 2

If using a bowl, stir the ingredients together until they’re well combined. If using a jar, secure the lid and shake vigorously to mix.

Taste and adjust seasoning to your preference. For extra heat, increase the crushed red pepper flakes or chili powder. For less salt, reduce the amount of salt added.

Step 4

Store the seasoning mix in an airtight container or spice jar for up to 6 months. Keep it in a cool, dark place to maintain freshness.
