My Cajun Seasoning by Rupert

Posted on October 14, 2008 by LaTara Ham-Ying

I love Cajun cooking as much as Mexican. Guess it’s their “bite”. This seasoning is the basis for most of my Cajun dishes.

My Cajun Seasoning
•   2 tablespoons onion powder
•   2-½ tablespoons garlic powder
•   2-½ tablespoons dried basil
•   2 tablespoons dried oregano leaves
•   1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
•   1 tablespoon celery seed
•   4 tablespoons paprika
•   1 tablespoon ground cayenne pepper*
•   3 tablespoons nutritional yeast

*if ya really like it spicy, you can substitute the following: one dried habanero pepper, seeds and all, with 1 tsp. of ground cayenne.

Place all ingredients in a bowl with locking cover; shake thoroughly to fold all ingredients. Place dry mix in blender and pulverize at high speed to a fine powder. There’s no salt because I like to add salt separately for each dish. Enjoy.
