CHILI LIME SEASONING

Steps:

• If using whole dried chiles, remove seeds from chiles and add to a blender.
• Grind until it reaches a powder consistency.
• Transfer to a small bowl and add the salt & citric acid. Mix well.
• Add sugar: this is optional if you want to give it a hint of Mexican candy or if your chili seasoning comes out too spicy for your taste.

MEXICAN ESSENTIALS: CHILI-LIME SEASONING (TAJIN)

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. To increase the heat use a hotter chili powder, and more cayenne. To decrease the heat reduce the chili powder and cayenne, and increase the paprika.
• 3. Save those spice bottles. I make a lot of my own spice combinations, but I buy a lot of individual spices. When a bottle goes empty, I remove the label, and toss it into the dish washer. Then, when I make my "special" spice mixtures, I slap my own label on, and stick in in the cupboard.
• 4. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 5. Add all the ingredients together in a jar, and keep in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight.
• 6. PLATE/PRESENT
• 7. I sprinkle it on beef, pork, and fish, before grilling, or cooking. It is awesome sprinkled on a good juicy burger, or even sprinkled over fresh fruit. Enjoy.
• 8. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
