This easy recipe is a great way to start making the kinds of seasonings you want, specifically formulated for your tastes.

3 tablespoons coriander seeds

Gather the ingredients.

The Spruce
Combine all ingredients in a spice grinder or a clean coffee grinder. Ideally, you'll want a coarse grind, so do not grind into a fine powder.

The Spruce
Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. The lemon pepper seasoning will retain its flavor for up to six months.
