It is a convenient way to introduce a touch of heat and complex flavor to everyday meals.

How to keep the rest
To maintain its flavor and potency, store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture from clumping the salt and to preserve the aromatic qualities of the spices within. Proper storage will help ensure its quality for an extended period.
