ALL PURPOSE MEXICAN CHILI SEASONING MIX



All Purpose Mexican Chili Seasoning Mix image

I got the original recipe from budget101 but have tweeked it a bit. I have discovered that this seasoning can take the place of many I would have otherwise bought. It is nice to have one thing that does the job of many. I have included several ideas for using this but would love to hear from anyone who comes up with something...

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 c dried parsley
1/3 c dried minced onion
1/4 c dried minced chives
1/3 c chili powder
1/4 c dried cumin
1/4 c salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground black pepper
2 Tbsp sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients and blend well. Store in an air tight container.
  • 2. For tacos: Brown 1 pound of hamburger and drain. Add 2 T. of seasoning, 2 T. of ketchup, and 1/2 cup water. Simmer stirring occasionally until liquid is reduced. Use for nachos, tacos, taco salad, or on hot dogs for chili dogs with cheese and onions.
  • 3. For beans: Sort, rinse, and soak 1 cup of pinto beans. Add to pot with 1 rounded tablespoon of seasoning mix, 3 slices cooked crumbled bacon, and 1 T. of fat or oil. Cover with water. Cook until beans are tender. To make baked beans, add ketchup, brown sugar, and onion to taste. Bake as desired. These beans are so good and the only way I prepare them now!
  • 4. For dip: Add 3 T. mix to 1 cup each of sour cream and mayonaise. If desired add 1 or more of the following: 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 c. crumbled cooked bacon, 1 chopped green onion. Refrigerate to blend flavors.
  • 5. For chili: Make mix as for tacos but increase mix to 1 1/2 tablespoons. After making meat, add 1 can of kidney or pinto beans, drained and about 2 cups of low or no sodium tomatoes (I use a pint of home canned). Simmer for about 20 minutes. Tastes even better for lunch the next day!
  • 6. For sloppy joes: Make mix as for tacos but do not cook yet. Add 2-3 T. brown sugar, 2 tsp. mustard, 1 tsp ground horseradish, 2 tsp. worcesterchire sauce and 1/4 cup ketchup. Simmer for about 10 minutes. Serve on buns with pickles, cheese, chopped onions, and mustard. This is good on mashed potatoes too.
  • 7. I have used this to season cooked chicken, beef, and pork for tacos and burritos. I have used it like a rub on grilled meat. It is really good!

Tips:

  • Choose High-Quality Ingredients: Use fresh herbs and spices for the best flavor. Ensure your salt and pepper are of good quality as they form the base of the seasoning.
  • Experiment with Different Ratios: The provided ratios are a starting point. Adjust the measurements to suit your taste preferences. Note the changes you make for future reference.
  • Store Properly: Keep your seasoning mix in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This will preserve its flavor and prevent spoilage.
  • Label Your Containers: If you make multiple seasoning blends, label each container clearly with the name of the blend and the date it was made. This will help you keep track of your seasonings and use them before they lose their potency.
  • Use Freshly Ground Spices: Pre-ground spices tend to lose their flavor over time. Whenever possible, use freshly ground spices for the best flavor and aroma.

Conclusion:

Making your own all-purpose seasoning mix is a great way to control the ingredients and create a blend that suits your taste. With careful selection of herbs and spices and proper storage, you can have a versatile seasoning mix that enhances the flavor of various dishes. Experiment with different ratios and combinations to find your perfect blend, and enjoy the convenience and satisfaction of using a homemade seasoning mix in your cooking. Happy cooking!
