- sea salt, black pepper corns, cayenne powder, chili flakes, dry oregano, cumin powder, coarse paprika… What else did I forget?… And then, of course, lots of regional things
So, the next question would be what you keep as must have condiments for cooking, right? Olive oil, vinegar (balsamic & white), fish sauce, mayo, hot sauce, salsa, mustard, green curry paste… what else I'm forgetting?
I have seen a lot of folks keep their spices with their camp gear. Spices should go back into the house after each trip. I use household seasonings that are packed for each trip. This way, they are always fresh and I pack with the foods that I intend to cook on that trip as well as some regulars that are always along. I still bring fresh garlic rather than granulated or chopped.

My wife handles the spices lol. But I think we had about 15 different spices plus a few blends on the last outing.
Salt, pepper, chili powder, cayenne, garlic powder, oregano, and I really don't know the rest lol.
Blends I had my burger, steak, and pork chop mixes.
Not a spice, but I usually carry powdered chicken soup and onion soup packets. I find they are a really handy way to make a quick broth or gravy or to add flavour to sauces.
