Mustard Free Creole Herb & Turmeric Seasoning
Store-bought seasoning blends are notorious for hiding unexpected ingredients, and mustard seed or mustard flour shows up in commercial spice mixes more often than most people realize. This homemade Creole-inspired blend puts you in full control, built entirely from pantry staples like garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, and a warm hit of ground turmeric and ginger. The Ceylon cinnamon adds a subtle sweetness that rounds out the heat without overpowering the savory herbs, making it genuinely versatile across proteins, roasted vegetables, and rice dishes. Mixing it yourself takes about two minutes — just stir everything together until the turmeric is fully incorporated and there are no streaks left in the bowl. Sealed in an airtight jar and tucked away from light and heat, the blend stays fresh and fragrant for up to six months. It's the kind of all-purpose seasoning you'll reach for constantly once it's sitting on your shelf.
