Notes

The great thing about homemade seasonings is adjusting them to your preferences. This means that if you like a stronger flavor of one herb or spice more, adjust it to your liking. Don’t forget to write down the changes you made to your recipe for future use.
You can use smoked paprika in place of normal paprika for a burst of extra flavor.
Using quality spices will enhance your seasoning mixture. Cheaper spices result in less flavor.
Use this seasoning in the same amount as you would store-bought.
