Notes
- Use spices that still smell strong: Spices get weaker over time. If a spice smells very faint when you open the jar, it will not add much flavor to the seasoning.
- Adjust the heat: Reduce cayenne for a milder blend or add a little more if you like extra spice.
- Start with the right amount: Use about 1 to 1½ tablespoons per pound of meat and adjust to taste.
- Great on proteins: This seasoning works especially well on shrimp, fish, chicken, steak, and pork before grilling, roasting, or pan-searing.
- Try it in rice dishes: Stir a little into rice, jambalaya, or beans to quickly boost flavor.
