Ensure all the spices are in powdered or ground form as mentioned in the ingredients list. If any of the spices are whole (e.g., cardamom pods, cloves), grind them finely using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.

In a mixing bowl, add the measured amounts of ground cumin, ground coriander, sea salt crystals, ground paprika, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, ground nutmeg, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and ground turmeric.

Using a spoon or a whisk, thoroughly mix all the spices together in the bowl. Ensure an even distribution of the spices to create a well-balanced blend.

Taste a small amount of the Issou Spice blend and adjust the seasonings according to your preference. You can add more cayenne pepper for additional heat or adjust the saltiness, if needed.

Transfer the Issou Spice mixture into an airtight container or a spice jar with a tight-sealing lid.

Label the container with the name "Issou Spice" and include the date of preparation. This will help you keep track of freshness.

Store the Issou Spice blend in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Properly stored, it should maintain its flavor for several months.

Use the Issou Spice blend in various dishes such as stews, soups, marinades, curries, or as a seasoning for meats, vegetables, or rice, adding depth and complexity to your recipes.
