🧂 Care & Storage
This seasoning has no artificial preservatives or anti-caking agents — so clumping may naturally occur. Simply shake, stir, or break apart with a spoon. Store in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly closed to keep it fresh and flavorful.
👉 If it clumps, you can refresh it:
Preheat oven to 200°F.
Once it reaches temp, turn off the oven and place spices inside.
Check every 10 minutes until it crumbles easily.
