A salt-free chili powder made from paprika, oregano, cumin, turmeric, garlic and a pinch of cayenne. Use it wherever a recipe calls for chili powder.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons ground oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

  • Put all the spices in a small bowl or zip-top bag.
  • Stir or shake until well combined.
  • Pour into a clean, airtight spice jar or bag; label it and keep it somewhere cool and dry.

Notes

Use wherever a recipe calls for chili powder (chili, taco meat, soups, rubs); start with the recipe's amount and adjust. No added salt, so season the dish separately. Airtight, cool, dark, dry; best about 6 months; keep moisture out.
