Copycat Heath Riles Garlic Butter Seasoning

Ingredients

• 0.25 cup dehydrated garlic
• 2 tbsp dehydrated onion flakes
• 1 tbsp white sugar
• 0.5 tbsp white sugar (The speaker says they are adding two, then clarifies they are using a half tablespoon; interpreted as an additional half tablespoon.)
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 2 tsp nutritional yeast flakes (Butter powder may be used instead, in the same quantity.)
• 2 tsp paprika (Not smoked.)
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
• 0.5 tsp parsley
• 0.5 tsp chili powder
• 0.25 tsp cayenne pepper

Steps

1. 1

   Measure the dehydrated garlic, dehydrated onion flakes, white sugar, brown sugar, nutritional yeast flakes, paprika, black pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, parsley, chili powder, and cayenne pepper into a bowl or food processor. The source gives a slightly unclear spoken sugar amount: it states one tablespoon of white sugar, then says “two” and clarifies “half tablespoon”; see the ingredient notes.

2. 2

   If you want a finer, more powdery consistency, process the mixture in a spice grinder or mini food processor. Leave it unprocessed for a chunkier seasoning with more substance. The speaker notes the original seasoning has some garlic pieces but is finer overall.

3. 3

   Use the seasoning as desired. The speaker says they put it on everything; no specific application or storage instructions are provided.

Notes

The transcript says turmeric should be included at 1/2 teaspoon but that the creator did not have any and left it out; it is therefore not included in the measured ingredient list. The creator also says the original includes MSG and salt, but leaves both out. Later audio repeats “a little bit” of garlic, salt, and pepper without measurable amounts or a clear instruction, so those additions are not quantified here. The white sugar wording is ambiguous: “one tablespoon” followed by “I'm adding two. I'm using a half tablespoon.”
