It keeps for a LONG time, too.
Fish and seafood cook fast, which makes them especially great for weeknight meals.
When you give that fish or seafood a punch of flavor with a spice rub.

What’s in This Spice Blend?
What’s the Best Salt for Seafood Rub?
I use Diamond Brand kosher salt, which is a light and clean-tasting salt with a larger grain.

If the rub tastes flat, increase the salt to your liking.
Spices dont necessarily go bad, but they do lose potency and flavor.
For this rub, you definitely want to use fresher dried herbs and spices.

Toss it and get some new stuff.
Pro tip:Use an airtight glass jar to mix the ingredients together and youll save on cleanup!
How Long Does This Rub Last and How Should I Store It?
Irvin Lin
That depends on how old your herb/spice is!
Store this spice rub in an airtight container in a dark pantry, clearly labeled with the date.
If your spices arent quite that fresh, the rub wont last as long.
Its also great on shellfish like shrimp, crab, or scallops.
