Instructions

  1. Stir together all the ingredients in a small bowl. Transfer to a container of some sort that has a tight-fitting lid—a glass jar with a screw-top lid works spectacularly.
  2. Set aside in a cool, dark place and use within a couple months.

Notes

  • Scale up the recipe--If you plan on using the spice blend frequently, double or triple the recipe.
  • Storage--Old Bay seasoning should be stored in an airtight container in a cool dark place for up to 2 months.
  • Grind your spices--For the strongest flavor, grind your own spices. Always measure the spices after grinding.
  • Measuring a "pinch"--If you prefer to be more precise in your measurements, a "pinch" can be measured as 1/16 of a teaspoon.
