CHESAPEAKE BAY SEASONING

Directions

1. In a small mixing bowl, stir together salt, cayenne, celery seed, paprika, mustard, black pepper, bay leaf, allspice, ginger, nutmeg, cardamom, and cinnamon until well-combined. Seasoning mix will keep indefinitely in a tightly covered container, stored at cool room temperature in a dark place.
2. **Note** If you eat a lot of seafood, multiply this recipe as much as you want and keep it on hand in an airtight sealed container. I recommend making up a batch that will be used within 1 month so you have the freshest flavor.
