ZATARAIN'S-STYLE SEAFOOD BOIL - SEASONING MIX

Steps:

• Combine all dry ingredients (except salt) in a square of cheesecloth and tie with string.
• Bring a large pot of water (enough for about 4 pounds of seafood) to a boil, add the bag of seasoning, salt and cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
• At this point, I also like to add one lemon, sliced, and 4 to 6 cloves of garlic, slivered or sliced.
• Let the seafood boil liquid simmer for at least 30 minutes or until water is tinted and seasoned.
• Add seafood or vegetables, and cook until done.
• Drain and ENJOY!
