I have the gochugara on the way right now. They sounded pretty good in the spice house email.
These go to eleven.

dsiets^^^ So I looked up the Tony Chachere's Creole Cajun Seasoning.
It it really 75% salt? I think I'll stay away.
26 oz Salt.
1.5 oz. black pepper
2 oz. ground red pepper
1 oz. garlic powder
1 oz. chili powder
1 oz. msg
I prefer less salt. I keep Emeril's Creole Seasoning, "Bayou Blast".
2.5 T paprika
2 T salt
2 T garlic powder
1 T black pepper
1 T onion powder
1 T cayenne pepper
1 T dried oregano
1 T dried thyme

We use it as a Salt, in it's own saltshaker.

PASigI’m a fan of Aleppo pepper, anyone here ever try it?
It’s like red pepper flakes but not as sharp/hot and a little more subtle and smoky. When stationed in Germany I’d ask the Turkish guy at the local Doener Kabab shop to sprinkle this dark red pepper flake on my Doener “extra scharf” I’d say (extra hot) and he’d sprinkle away generously with an approving smile as he knew we Americans liked hot & spicy but the Germans didn’t care for it. Years later I realized that stuff was Aleppo pepper.
I get mine from The Spice House, it’s good wherever you use red pepper flakes. Great on pizza!
