Homemade Taco Seasoning Mix

Jemshui's Note:

¼ cup seasoning and ¾ cup of water per pound of meat. As long as its stored in a cool, dry place it keeps forever. possible add-ins: dried jalapeños ancho chilli powder chipotle ( I always add chipotle) dried onions they’ll rehydrate during cooking. This recipe will make enough for about 4 lbs of meat. This is pretty spicy stuff, if you don’t like a lot heat remove some of the peppers.

• Total Time: 20 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 8 oz

• 8 tablespoons chili powder
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder (I prefer granulated )
• 2 tablespoons onion powder (I prefer granulated)
• 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon cilantro
• 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon parsley
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch (flour in a pinch)

Directions:

1. I usually cook and drain off my hamburger then add a chopped onion and a clove of garlic and cook for about 3 minutes on same heat I cooked the hamburger on, to soften the onion and cook the garlic. Add the seasoning and water and turn heat to high, as soon as it started bubbling / boiling turn to low and cook ‘til most of the liquid is gone. If you actually turn off the heat once it has cooked down a ways it’ll thicken up the rest on its own. Can be used for fajitas, tacos.you name it.
