  • 1 teaspoon fennel seed (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon* cayenne, depending on your spice tolerance
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Whisk the ingredients together in a small bowl. Transfer to an airtight container or jar. Store for 6 months to 1 year in a cool, dry place.
