Equipment

  • spice grinder or small blender
  • Measuring spoons
  • airtight spice jar with shaker lid

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp vinegar powder
  • 1 tbsp fine salt (or Himalayan pink salt)
  • 0.25 tsp citric acid
  • 0.5 tsp onion powder
  • pinch of sugar (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Place all ingredients in a small blender or spice grinder.
    Popcorn and seasoning in clean setting
  • Pulse 2–3 times to combine evenly. Don’t over-blend — keep it light and powdery.
  • Taste and adjust — add more vinegar powder for tang or salt for balance.
  • Transfer to a clean, dry spice jar with shaker top.
  • Keep in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.

Notes

For a milder flavor, add a pinch of sugar. Himalayan pink salt adds minerals and depth. Store your blend in an airtight container away from moisture — drop a few grains of rice in to prevent clumping.
