“Less expensive plus you control the salt level. A recipe for one of the most popular seasoning blends in Canada that you can easily make at home.”
Ingredients
3 Tbsp granulated onion
3 Tbsp black peppercorns
3 Tbsp granulated garlic
2 Tbsp smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
3 Tbsp kosher salt
2 Tbsp chili flakes (cayenne pepper flakes or red pepper flakes also work)
3 tbsp mustard seeds
2 Tbsp coriander seeds
3 Tbsp dill seeds
Instructions
I like to grind each individual ingredient to a coarse consistency before blending them all together. This ensures that I get a uniform size.
I use a mortar and pestle but this is not completely necessary. You can use a spice grinder, blender or food processor if you like but again I recommend, doing each one individually.
Blend all of the ground spices together well and store in an airtight container like a mason jar.
This spice blend will maintain its freshness for several months. Small 4 ounce mason jars make great host/ess gifts if you're invited to summer barbecues.
Recipe Notes
I like the salt amount in this recipe but if you prefer a more heavily salted seasoning for your purposes, try increasing the salt by a Tbsp and experimenting from there.
