The Secret Dorito Recipe Hack You're Going to Love

The Secret Dorito® Recipe Hack You're Going to Love!

Dorito recipe

 The Cheesy Dorito® Seasoning Rub We're Obsessed With!

You love the chips! Now you can make this surprisingly easy spice rub at home.

We found the key ingredients to the addictive cheesy Dorito® seasoning that will literally change your life. This incredibly versatile rub is crazy amazing on everything we tried. It literally turns everything into a spicy, smoky, savory, cheesy sensation. Use on wings, brisket, vegetables, baked potatoes and even omelettes!  

After many variations, here’s the Dorito® recipe we love:

There are two spice ingredients that you probably don’t have on hand but trust me you will wonder what you ever did without them! 

 

Recipe and ingredients:

1/2 cup cheddar cheese powder (you can use Nutritional Yeast as a Vegan option)

1/4 cup tomato powder 

1 tablespoon of garlic powder 

1 tablespoon of onion powder 

1 tablespoon of chili powder 

1 teaspoon of paprika  (for color and a hint of smokeyness)

1 teaspoon of salt

1/2 teaspoon of sugar (to balance taste)

1/2 teaspoon of turmeric (for color)

Instructions:

  1. Combine Ingredients:

    • In a small bowl, mix together. Stir until well combined.
  2. Store:

    • Transfer the seasoning mix to an airtight container. It can be stored in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
  3. Use:

    • To use, simply sprinkle your homemade Dorito seasoning over your favorite snacks. For homemade chips, sprinkle the seasoning on freshly baked or fried tortilla chips while they're still warm to help the seasoning stick.

Tips for Using Homemade Dorito® Seasoning:

  • Adjust to Taste: Feel free to tweak the amounts of each spice according to your taste preferences. More chili or cayenne pepper will increase the heat, while more cheddar cheese powder / nutritional yeast will enhance the cheesy flavor.
  • NOTE: add a 1/2 teaspoon of cumin for increased warmth / earthiness, add 1/2 teaspoon of coriander for a hint of citrus.
  • Application: For a more even coating, place your snack and seasoning in a large ziplock bag, seal it, and gently shake until the pieces are evenly coated.
  • Versatility: Beyond snacks, this Dorito seasoning can be used to add a burst of flavor to dishes like tacos, grilled vegetables, or even sprinkled over popcorn.

Enjoy the bold and addictive flavor of Doritos® anytime with this homemade seasoning blend. It's a fun and customizable way to bring the classic Dorito® taste to a wide range of snacks and dishes.
