Ingredients

  • 1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 teaspoons onion powder
  • 4 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
  • 4 ½ teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 6 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 4 ½ teaspoons cayenne powder (chili powder may be substituted)
  • 4 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
  • 9 teaspoons sea salt or 4 ½ teaspoons refined salt

Instructions

  • Stir everything together. And that's it.
  • If, however, you want a Cajun spice mix powder, dump all the ingredients into a food processor and process until the desired texture is achieved.
  • Keep the Cajun spice mix in a tightly covered jar. Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. It should keep for a month or so.
