Capsaicin Free Creole Herb & Turmeric Seasoning
Creole seasoning blends are bold, aromatic, and deeply satisfying — but most store-bought versions are loaded with cayenne, paprika, or chili powder, making them off-limits for anyone who needs to avoid capsaicin. This homemade blend captures that same layered, savory depth using garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, and basil as its backbone. Ground turmeric adds a warm earthiness and a gorgeous golden hue, while Ceylon cinnamon and ginger bring just enough complexity to keep things interesting. The result is a fragrant, well-rounded seasoning that works beautifully on proteins, roasted vegetables, rice dishes, and more. It comes together in minutes with a quick stir, and a single batch stored in an airtight jar will keep for up to six months — so you can season confidently all season long. Having a reliable go-to blend like this in your pantry means you never have to second-guess a spice label again.
