• Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of making this seasoning.

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

• Start by collecting all your spices. Head to your pantry and ensure you have everything on the list. If you’re missing something, don’t fret! Just make a note of what you need.

Step 2: Measure Each Component

• Precision is key, but there’s wiggle room. Grab measuring spoons and measure out each ingredient. Put on your favorite playlist; cooking should be fun!

Step 3: Combine the Spices

• In a medium bowl, combine garlic powder, ground cumin, ground annatto, ground coriander, sea salt, dried oregano, smoked paprika, black pepper, and ground cinnamon. This is where the magic begins.

Step 4: Whisk Together

• Use a whisk or a fork to mix the spices thoroughly. This isn’t just for aesthetics; it ensures that each scoop of your seasoning has a balanced flavor.

Step 5: Taste and Adjust

• Here comes the fun part. Take a small taste of your blend. Does it need more heat? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes. Want more earthiness? Add a touch more cumin. Tweak it to your taste buds!

Step 6: Store It Right

• Pour your homemade sazon seasoning into an airtight container. Choose a glass jar for longevity or a small plastic container. Label it with the date and store it in a cool, dark place.
