Combine

In a medium size bowl combine all the dried spices with a whisk until incorporated. Use or store. See ratio for meat in the notes section.

Store

If storing, place into an air tight jar like a mason jar for up to six months in a cool dark cupboard.

This is just the blend I've been looking for compared to buying commercial seasoning. However, I use a 3-cup Kitchenaid Mini Food Processor to grind up the spices for easier assimilation into the cooked meat or vegetables I'm preparing. Your photo seems to agree with my results -- simply using a whisk will not achieve the same.
