Check out the second one. It includes the salt. I guess everything else would need to be ground down to make a powdered mix.

ETA: My bad, I left out the spice mix! This goes with the 2nd recipe I posted above.

Crab Boil

¼ cup yellow mustard seeds
3 tablespoons coriander seeds
2 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons dill sprigs
2 tablespoons whole allspice
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients. On a large square of cheesecloth or muslin, pile mixture in the center. Bring cloth up and around mixture; secure with kitchen twine like a sachet.
