BAYOU CAJUN SPICE BLEND

Yield: ¼ cup

Cajun cuisine is the food of my ancestors! I love it. Let the good times roll! When I think about catfish now, I think about this blend. It works well with any white-fleshed fish, shrimp, or poultry, and brings vegetables to life.

2 teaspoons freshly ground white pepper

2 teaspoons garlic powder

2 teaspoons onion powder

2 teaspoons cayenne pepper

2 teaspoons paprika

1 tablespoon dried thyme

2 teaspoons ground black pepper

½ teaspoon mustard powder

Mix together all the ingredients in an airtight container and store in a cool, dry place away from heat and light.
