INGREDIENT SUBSTITUTIONS
Chilli powder can be replaced with cayenne powder, chilli flakes or dried chillies. If using the chilli flakes you can choose to blend into a powder as per the method in the instructions. Reduce the chilli powder if you prefer a milder spice blend. More paprika can be used in its place.
Brown Sweetener - You can use any sweetener you prefer or choose to omit completely.
Smoked paprika can be replaced with sweet paprika or chipotle powder if preferred.
Mustard powder can be reduced and added with a 50/50 mix of ground ginger.
Salt flakes - If using Himalayan salt flakes reduce to 1.5 tablespoons. It is much saltier. Do not use any salts with added ingredients such as iodine.
Garlic and onion powders can also be replaced with dried flakes or granules if preferred. I would recommend blending into a powder before coating meat.
