Notes
Use 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons (per 1 lb meat) for 4 servings.To replace 1 packet taco seasoning mix (6 servings) use about 2 tablespoons + 1 1/2 teaspoons spice mix.Homemade taco seasoning can be stored for up to 1 to 2 years if it's kept in a cool, dry place and in a tightly sealed container. However, the flavor of the seasoning can diminish over time, and it's usually at its peak for the first 6 months.NOTE ABOUT SALT:This measurement is approx 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt per serving. Diamond Crystal kosher salt is known for its coarser grains compared to the fine grains of table salt. This difference in grain size means that Diamond Crystal kosher salt has less salt by volume than table salt, so you'll need to use less table salt if substituting.Low Sodium Taco Seasoning: You can also make this a low-sodium seasoning by cutting the salt in half, or leaving it out altogether for a salt-free taco seasoning.*check labels for gluten-free.
