• 2 tablespoons celery salt (or 1 tbls. ground celery seed and 1 tbls. salt)
• 1 tablespoon dry mustard
• 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 2 teaspoons sweet paprika (smoked paprika is even better if you can find it!)

• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon ground mace

1. Combine all ingredients in an airtight jar, mix thoroughly.
