Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
Instructions
Measure the Spices
- Start by measuring all spices carefully. Use level measuring spoons for accuracy. Balanced amounts help the flavor stay even and consistent.
Add to Mixing Bowl
- Place paprika, smoked paprika, garlic powder and onion powder into a small bowl. These spices build the main flavor base.
Add Salt and Pepper
- Add fine salt and black pepper. Salt enhances every spice. Black pepper adds mild heat and depth.
Add Heat and Sweetness
- Stir in cayenne pepper, chili powder and sugar. The cayenne gives spice. The sugar balances heat and enhances crisp fries.
Mix Thoroughly
- Use a whisk or spoon to mix everything well. Break up any small clumps. The color should look warm red-orange.
Store Properly
- Transfer seasoning into an airtight spice jar. Keep in a cool, dry place. Use within three months for best flavor.
Season the Fries
- Sprinkle over hot fries right after cooking. Toss gently to coat evenly. The heat helps the seasoning stick beautifully.
Notes
- Add extra cayenne for more heat.
- Reduce salt for a lighter version.
- Add dried oregano for herbal notes.
- Use brown sugar for deeper sweetness.
- Try adding a pinch of white pepper.
- Sprinkle over popcorn for a fun snack.
