Notes
Taste it: Before using your burrito seasoning, taste a small pinch to fine-tune the flavor balance as needed.
Storage: Homemade spice blends generally stay fresh for about 6 months to 1 year when stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, but use your senses to check for freshness over time.
