Blend all the ingredients together until smooth and well mixed. Taste the mixture to see if you have enough heat from the cayenne pepper. I will recommend starting with ½ tsp of cayenne pepper and increase the quantity to your taste.
Add a pinch of salt just to taste.
Place the powdered mixture in an airtight container and store it in a cool dry place.
