Notes

Avoid Clumping - never pour the seasoning over extremely hot or steaming food because if it is exposed to moisture, it will clump.
If Clumping Happens - if your seasoning does clump, don't throw it out! Add cornstarch.
A Grain of Rice - for ease of use, add the blend to a salt shaker and use raw rice in order to ensure it doesn't harden.
