My Copy Cat Of Zatarains Seasoning

How much table salt

I'm from Oregon and have never heard of Zatarains Seasoning, is this an allround spice mix for Chickenm pork, beef and fish etc? Could you give a short history of the spice mix?
Thanks,

3bears2...not sure if anyone answered you: Zatarain's is a commercial Cajun spice mix found here in the south. They have a full line of products for Cajun dishes.

Jeff, could you please clarify the table salt amount, is that to taste? and 26 ounces of cayenne?

I think it is an issue with the cut/paste option formatting.
table salt, 26 oz
cayenne pepper, 5 tbs
black pepper, 3 tbs
onion powder, 3 tbs
garlic powder, 3 tbs
chili powder, 3 tbs
thyme, 1 tbs
sweet basil, 1 tbs
bay leaf, 1 tbs
grind all ingrediants (sic) except salt in food processor. Add the salt and mix well.

is this what eman's post was actually trying to say?

Something is definitely wrong with this amount of Salt for this recipe.
Now just Think about it for a minute, just a minute, and no longer
(a minute elapsed)
OK, minute is up.

Now let's convert ounces to Tablespoons:
.25 (1/4) of an ounce equals to 0.4163371 Tablespoon.
1 ounce equals to 1.665349 Tablespoons
10 ounces equals to 16.65349 Tablespoons
15 ounce equals to 24.98023 Tablespoons
20 ounce equals to 33.30697 Tablespoons
25 ounce equals to 41.63371 Tablespoons
26 ounce equals to 43.29906 Tablespoons

Maybe start off with 2 Tablespoon and add according to your taste from here.
