Ingredients
  

Basic Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons dried dill weed Always opt for fresh, aromatic dill for robust flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder Ensure it's fresh for maximum potency.
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder Use fresh if preferred (adjust quantities).
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar White sugar works well; consider honey or agave for a different flavor.
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt Acts as a flavor enhancer; sea salt can be used.
  • 1 teaspoon citric acid Adds tanginess; substitute with lemon zest or juice if needed.
  • 1 teaspoon mustard powder Provides subtle warmth; yellow mustard can be used if in a pinch.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Measure all ingredients and place them into a small mixing bowl.
  2. Whisk the ingredients together until you achieve a consistent color and texture.
  3. Carefully transfer the seasoning blend into an airtight container or spice jar.
  4. Seal the container and let the mix rest for at least 24 hours to meld flavors.
  5. Label the container with the date and store in a cool, dry place.

Notes

Allow resting for 48 hours for the most robust flavor. Keep spices fresh for best results.
