This spice mix, similar to Old Bay Seasoning, is great with all types of seafood. If you eat a lot of seafood, multiply this recipe as much as you want and keep it on hand in an airtight sealed container. I would recommend making up a batch that will be used within 1 month so you have the freshest flavor.
