Homemade Montreal Steak Spice
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp. granulated onion
- 3 tbsp. black peppercorns
- 2 tbsp. chili flakes, cayenne pepper flakes or red pepper flakes
- 3 tbsp. granulated garlic
- 2 tbsp. smoked or regular paprika
- 3 tbsp. kosher salt
- 3 tbsp. mustard seeds
- 2 tbsp. coriander seeds
- 3 tbsp. dill seeds
Instructions
- Using a mortar and pestel set, grind each individual ingredient to a coarse consistency (a spice blend, heavy cast iron pan, rolling pin or a meat hammer can also be used to grind the spices); set each spice aside individually; grinding before using ensures a uniform size.
- In a medium bowl, blend all of the ground spices together well; store in an airtight Mason jar or other airtight container.
- This spice blend will maintain its freshness for several months.
Notes
Small 4-ounce Mason jars make great host gifts when invited to summer barbecues.
