I often have a selection of spices on my stove, and the selection often changes.

What is your current throw-together mix of spices right now?

    Currently, I love to throw together smoked paprika, cumin, and garlic powder!

    This is a little more work but a brilliant seasoning mix to sprinkle on curries.

    Mix together 50g white sugar, and a teaspoon each of salt, cardamon seeds, chilli flakes. Spread on a silicon baking sheet or a cookie sheet covered with silicon baking paper and bake at 200C for a few minutes until the sugar caramelizes. When cool enough to handle peel off the silicon, allow to harden and then crush to a rough powder in a food processor.

    Dean Jacobs Tuscany Bread Dipping mix, in a grinder bottle. I grind up and use in all sorts of dishes. Order via Amazon.

    I have a pretty extensive shelf of herbs and spices. This week, I made turkey tacos with my own blend. Last evening, herb-baked chicken with my "poultry blend," but this winter I've been using for both poultry and fish Mrs. Dash Lemon-Pepper (with augments). Just a rut I'm in.

    Sounds weird, but I’m on a kick of using pepper flakes and dried dill. Finishing with flake sea salt.

    Of spices I use together smoked paprika, garlic powder, and Himalayan salt on popcorn. I use a pumpkin spice blend in oatmeal every day. I have a bunch of spice blends between Penzey's and Trader Joe's, my favorite is Fox Point which has garlic, shallots, salt, and a few other things. Mural of Flavor and Arizona Dreaming are great too. Trader Joe's favorite is 21 Seasoning Salute.

    I've been using the Mrs Dash seasonings because of hbp. But I love paprika, lemon pepper, and white pepper.

    I have a blend I made for blackened cod and a creole blend I come back to all the time. They're really quite similar, the blackened mix has more paprika.

    Salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. I season chicken with this usually to use in pastas and stuff like that.

    Sumac, Tj chili lime or everything but the bagel, za’tar, Thai kitchen curry paste, and creole or Cajun seasonings
    Not a blend, but nutritional yeast and hot sauce with salt and pepper is amazing on popcorn or savory oats 😊

    I have a basket with all no sodium spice mixtures. I use all the flavours of Mrs.Dash and like them all. I use them on rice, potatoes, chicken, stir fries etc.

    Best one I've found this week was at the dollar store 😏. It's like using the Trinity in Italian and Hispanic cuisine, just dehydrated. Mixed in there is garlic and a couple of other items, no salt or anti-caking agent added. I used it this last week on chicken & salmon burgers and it didn't even need added salt. I'll be stocking up 😊. Can't live without Sumac either. I finally found a ginormous container for 5.49. It's a must for naan, pita or even hummus & babaganush.
