Equipment
- Small mixing bowl
- Measuring spoons
- Airtight spice jar or container
- Spoon or mini whisk
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional
Instructions
Step 1: Measure with Care
- Start by measuring each spice precisely. Even though this is a simple blend, balance matters. Too much cumin can overpower, and too much chili powder can make it bitter.
Step 2: Combine Everything
- Add all your spices into a small mixing bowl. At this stage, you’ll already start to notice the beautiful colors—deep reds, warm browns, and golden tones.
Step 3: Mix Thoroughly
- Use a spoon or small whisk to blend everything together until evenly combined. Make sure there are no clumps, especially from the garlic or onion powder.
Step 4: Store Properly
- Transfer the seasoning into an airtight jar. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
