If you’ve ever used taco seasoning in a taco, it probably tasted great. If you’ve never tried taco seasoning before, or you’re a little unsure what to put on a taco, then you probably don’t want to buy taco seasoning from the store. Most grocery stores and grocery stores sell taco seasoning, but it’s not the best. Here’s how to make your own at home.
What Goes in Taco Seasoning
Taco seasoning is an American creation, made up of dried chili peppers, garlic, cilantro, oregano, onion, salt, pepper, and cumin. The goal of taco seasoning is to add an added dimension to tacos, which are usually made with beef, shredded lettuce, cheese, and sour cream. Taco seasoning was created in the 1970’s and was added to the national menu by the California Taco Company, in 1977. The California Taco Company was in fact, the first company to ever produce taco seasoning. The recipe for taco seasoning was developed by chef Rick Bayless, after he realized that what he typically cooked with in his tacos did not really add much flavor. It was at this point that he decided to experiment with his own recipe, which eventually became the recipe he is most known for. Bayless has won numerous awards for his taco seasoning, including the James Beard Foundation Award for Best Chef Midwest. He also won a Chef of the Year Award from Esquire Magazine, as well as a James Beard Award for Best Chef of the Midwest. Taco seasoning has also been featured on the Food Network, where chef Bayless makes a comparison to Taco Bell’s marinara sauce.
What to Use Instead of Taco Seasoning
Many taco seasoning blends contain a lot of salt, which can cause health issues. There are many other common ingredients that contain salt in them. For example, regular seasonings like salt and pepper can be found in salsa, dressing and other condiments. Also, fast food brands often add salt to their sauce. These are all popular taco seasoning blends that can cause health issues. If you want to use an alternative taco seasoning blend that is free of salt, you may want to try one of the following:
1. Kraft Homestyle Ranch Mix, which is also known as the Annie’s Cheddar and Cheese Mix
2. Marinara sauce, which is often used in place of taco seasoning

The best type of taco seasoning is a mix of chili powder and ground cumin. This combo gives a unique taste to tacos and burritos, but a few other spices can be used too.

To add a bit of zip, you can add some salt, black pepper and other spices that go with Mexican food.
