Seasoning Essentials Tex Mex Spice Recipes

TEX MEX SEASONING

Steps:

• Salt is always optional in homemade seasoning. Feel free to add it to the blend now or wait and add it, to taste, when you make a recipe later. (Just don't forget it entirely. Salt will bring out the flavors in the recipe you're making and will allow this seasoning blend to really shine.)
• Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

SEASONING ESSENTIALS: TEX MEX SPICE

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. If kept in a cool dry place (the pantry comes to mind), most spices will last up to a year.
• 3. If you have an old glass spice bottle with a shaker top, that would be an ideal storage container.
• 4. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 5. All of the ingredients have a ground consistency, except 3: The dehydrated onions, dried oregano, and the red pepper flakes. So, before mixing all the ingredients together, place those 3 into a spice grinder, or mortar, and grind until they are the same consistency as the other spices.
• 6. Mix all the ingredients together, and store in a bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid.
• 7. PLATE/PRESENT
• 8. I use this in a lot of different recipes: • With chicken, beef, or chicken tacos • Shake a bit over a taco bowl • As a spice topping on mashed, or smashed potatoes • Sprinkled over a queso cheese and chili dip • Add to mac & cheese for a South-of-the-Border twist And, leave a shaker full of it on the table for Taco Tuesdays Enjoy.
• 9. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
