You are going to want to put this Homemade Blackened Seasoning Rub on everything! Not only do I put it on juicy meats, I sprinkle the rub onto avocado toast, dollop a spoonful into tuna salad just to name a few.
This seasoning rub contains aromatic spices like cumin, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, smoked paprika and much more!
How long should I store spices?
Depending on the type of spice you use, generally whole spices last up to four years, and ground spices last up to three years.
However, I find that after one year, spices attend to taste stale and lose their potency. For this reason, I attend to buy spices in smaller containers vs. larger bulk containers.
What’s inside a Blackened Spice Seasoning Mix?
Smoked paprika–add smokiness without the bbq being present.
Garlic powder–adds umami and aromatics.
Oregano–adds an herby flare.
Cracked black pepper–I used fresh cracked black pepper (yes, I hovered over my kitchen counter grinding and collecting black pepper into my hands, otherwise, use coarse black pepper. I would not use ground for this recipe.
Cayenne pepper–add the perfect amount of spice.
Mint–adds freshness without being too overpowering.
Allspice–gives sweetness without adding sugar.
Cumin–this powerful spice is essential because it almost gives a meaty, savory flavor.
Salt–I chose to add salt to the mix. However, feel free to omit it all together for a salt-free version.
Let’s make something spicy–I made Juicy Blackened Chicken Meatballs with this spice blend!
