Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, basil, thyme, black pepper, white pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika and salt. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• 1. Recipe from New New Orleans Cooking, by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch, published by William and Morrow, 1993. Read more at: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/emerils-essence-creole-seasoning-recipe2.html?oc=linkback
• 2. Get all of your individual spices measured out in a bowl for mixing. As this recipe as written it's a tad hot, use less cayenne to vary the heat. I'd suggest using about 1/2 of suggested or even just one teaspoon. Cayenne is an integral part of Cajun/Creole cooking and doesn't just add heat. Cayenne has a flavor all it's own, that does add a level that no other spice has. So at least use some.
• 3. Combine all ingredients thoroughly. Store in an airtight container for future use. You can use old spice containers, Ziploc bags, Tupperware and Glad make small plastic screw on lids etc.
• 4. Of course you can purchase it either at your local grocery store, if they don't have it you can always buy online. I use Cajun Grocer for all of my seafood and Louisiana products. Great prices, fast shipping and there isn't anything they don't carry. Some items may be seasonal. http://www.cajungrocer.com/
