Perhaps the original recipe calls for 3 tsp of salt, rather than 3 tbs. The amount of cumin can be reduced to half as well. I use masa flour instead of cornstarch. Also, gotta use Mexican oregano.

Delicious and EASY taco seasoning! I cut the salt WAY back- I prefer to salt food after cooking. I think I use less than 1Tb. I also cut back on the red pepper since my chili powder is a little spicier than most. I used Mrs. Dash in place of the oregano because I was out! I keep this in a mason jar in my cabinet at all times. I like that I can scale the amount of seasoning to the amount of meat that I want to cook, and I know exactly what is in my food.

Good recipe. I ommitted the red pepper flakes as the reason I was making and not buying was due to alleries in the family to red pepper. I added some cayenne pepper per another recipe. Agree with other reviewers about the salt. I tried 3 teaspoons rather than the 3 tablespoons in the recipe and stll think it was salty. Maybe my beef boulion granules are salty enough I am thinking.

Very good, but also salty. Will try to reduce salt next time.

i ended up making 2 batches of this because the first one was way too salty. i doubled it and omitted the salt on the second batch and it seemed about perfect. I added some smoked paprika but that was the only additional spice. Thanks for the recipe as is though too salty sorry

I usually omit salt so I didn't run into the problem that others did with too much salt. However this recipe, while being hot, lacks flavor and needs some salt (that's coming from a non salt person!). I doubled the cumin but it is still bland. I think the 1/3 cup of water is perfect though. Also the addition of corn starch in this instead of flour makes a good consistency. I would suggest trying the taco seasoning 1 recipe instead of this one.

I really like this recipe, and use it all the time, as I usually have these ingredients on hand. The only change that I made was to eliminate the salt altogether. It is so easy to add salt as needed later, and we found this way too salty. Without the salt in the mix, it's perfect for us. Thanks for sharing.
