1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon sea salt (or kosher)
1 teaspoon black pepper

Mix and store in an airtight container.
I've done this a few times, there's some very good recipes on the internet for taco seasoning.

I've eaten at Gordon Ramsey Steak in Vegas. I had the wellington, which is his "signature dish". It was one of the blandest, most tasteless meals I've had. I've never wished for a salt shaker as badly. High quality tenderloin wrapped in puff pastry. That's all you could taste, no seasoning at all. You couldn't taste the duxelle, the proscuitto, nothing. Just a very good cut of meat wrapped in pastry.

Sometimes this thread is not so much about what you made as it is about "How" you made it. Ask me sometime about my easy biscuit recipe .

Wow did someone get their feelings hurt? Should I call Dr. Phil? For a former knuckle dragger you sure have a thin skin....... And just to be "fair" I screw up in the kitchen all the time, I just don't post my mistakes.......

Gordon Ramsey might be a hard ass on TV but he is a Michelin rated chef.....

I've made his version beef Wellington and it's out of this world.

Nah, I honestly wanted the feedback. Didn't hurt my feelings a bit. If I wasn't trying to learn how to do it better, I wouldn't be wasting your time asking for feedback. I believe we learn more from our screwups than from our successes.

He's not just Michelin rated, he had (until last year) the second highest count of Michelin Stars. I also like his style, it fits perfectly with the theory of "Hard but Fair" that they instilled in Basic way back when. I have all the respect for him.

I've made it as well based on the recipe in "In the Heat of the Kitchen" and it was phenomenal, especially the sauce. I certainly didn't expect him to cook it personally and the copy is never as good as the original. My comment was just an anecdote, nothing meant by it.

LOL! I had never heard of the guy before, or the show. There's a reason I'm living off-grid.

Wow, great vibrant peppers! I like how in image four, your diced peppers show no white pith! Fantastic!

May I inquire about the next step in your Pulled Chicken Noodle soup?

What kind of noodles?

He lost two of his Michelin stars on that restaurant, which is rumored to be closing soon.
