Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 1.5 tablespoons ground smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Gather all the ingredients and measure them out precisely using measuring spoons or a digital scale for accuracy.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the ground cumin, smoked paprika, ground coriander, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, ground black pepper, ground nutmeg, ground cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
Use a fork or whisk to thoroughly mix all the spices together until they are evenly distributed.
Once mixed, pour the spice blend into an airtight glass jar or spice container. Use a funnel if needed to avoid spills.
Seal the jar tightly and store in a cool, dark place, such as a pantry or a spice cupboard, for up to 6 months to retain maximum freshness and flavor.
Shake the jar gently before each use to redistribute any spices that may have settled.
