A quick little post here! It is very important for me to use my own mix of spices when I cook. Whether it is just oregano and some dried basil, or a homemade rub. Lately, I have been cooking a lot of Mexican food and I created my own mix. All I do is put equal parts of each spice in a mason jar, seal it up and give it a shake. Lable it and put it with my spices so it is always there when I need it on the fly and am not using store-bought stuff that is filled with added salt. Here is my mixture so you can do it too!
1 part Cumin
1 part oregano
1 part garlic powder
2 part chili powder
1 part paprika
a pinch of salt and pepper
Mix it in a mason jar, use when you need it!
