Tajin

Tajin is a commercial seasoning made simply from chile peppers, salt and dehydrated lime.  If you love the flavors of chiles and lime this is just the seasoning for you. Put it on mangoes, papayas, watermelon, cucumbers, salad greens and even popcorn. Tart, spicy and just the right amount of salt.

Tajin is sold in small 5.3 and 14 ounce bottles.  You can typically find Tajin in well-stocked grocery stores, Hispanic markets and as always, on Amazon.com: Tajin

Substitute For Tajin

If you don't have Tajin seasoning you can use one of these substitutes:

• You can make your own version at home by combing 1/2 cup sea salt, 1/8 cup de arbol chile powder, 2 1/2 tablespoons of ground dried lime.  Combine the ingredients and store in a tightly sealed jar.  You could also use another chile powder if you wish such as ancho powder which would have much less heat.
• OR - For a very quick substitute you could combine 2 teaspoons sea salt with 1/4 teaspoon chile powder of choice, and a squeeze of fresh lime.
