Creole Seasoning II
I made Jambalaya the other day and found a recipe for Creole Seasoning Blend from AllRecipes.com. When I went to make black eyed peas to go with it, I saw another variation from Black Eyed Eyed Peas with Smoked Ham from Philly Boy Jay. His recipe had spices in it that I thought were missing from the original, so I decided to doctor up the remaining batch by combining the two.
Creole Seasoning II – Bigger and Mo’ Bettah
- 1 Tbsp onion powder
- 1 Tbsp garlic powder
- 1 Tbsp dried oregano
- 1 Tbsp dried basil
- 1.5 tsp dried thyme
- 1.5 tsp ground black pepper
- 1.5 tsp ground white pepper
- 1.5 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2.5 Tbsp paprika (I used smoked paprika)
- 1.5 Tbsp salt (used sea salt)
- 1 Tbsp chili powder
- 1 Tbsp ground cumin
- 2 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp celery seed (Philly Boy Jay used celery salt but I didn’t have any so I used seed)
Mix all the ingredients well and store in an airtight (preferably glass) container.
