Step 1: Mix dry ingredients
The first step in our copycat recipe it to mix together the dry ingredients. Remember that these dry ingredients coat the steak and give it a rich flavor. You can mix them together using a whisk or a spoon.
Ensure that everything mixes evenly and there are no visible lumps. This will prevent biting into a steak and feel the flavor of a single seasoning at one point. You don’t want a steak tasting bland because of coating with clumps of spices. Make sure the dry spices are evenly distributed and mixed thoroughly in the bowl
Step 2: Mix in the oil
Measure ¼ cup of neutral tasting oil like vegetable or canola oil to avoid altering the flavors from the spices. Mix the oil into the spices to form a paste.
Ensure to add enough oil according to how you measured your spices. Adding excess oil could alter the flavors of the spices while adding too little will cause the spices to clump and not stick appropriately to the steak.
For the best results, mix in a little oil at a time until you achieve the right consistency.
Step 3: Add in the vinegar
We’ll now mix in the vinegar into the spices and oil paste. Use any kind of vinegar you want; whether balsamic, apple cider or white vinegar.
The vinegar helps the spices stick on the steak while making the flavor get deep into the steak.
Step 4: Let the seasoning rest for 24 hours before using
For the best combination of the flavors, allow it to rest for 24 hours before using it. This will give enough time for the flavors to mix evenly and come together as one. If you use the seasoning right after mixing, you will notice that it won’t be as flavorful as using it after 24 hours
For later use, put in an air tight container and freeze for up to 3 months or in the fridge for up to 3 days until ready to use.
Conclusion
This seasoning recipe will give you the same taste on your steak as you would get with Omaha steak seasoning. It’s easy to make, and if you don’t like some of the spices, you can adjust to remove some, add others, or change the measurements until you get the flavors that suits your tastes.
