How to Store Your Spices?

Keep them away from heat and light.

For longer storage, store spices in a dark cabinet. This will keep the spices fresh and prevent any oxidation.

Your spices should be kept in cool and dry areas, away from direct sunlight. A heater or window can cause the spice to lose its aroma and flavour.

Spices need to be kept in an airtight glass container or tin. If you are storing your spices in plastic containers, ensure there is no moisture.

It is vital to always check the seal after opening, resealing and before storing.

Do not throw away any spices that you have left over. Use them instead by adding them into other dishes. For an extended shelf life, you can freeze the vegetables.

What are the 11 Indian spice blends?

Indian cuisine has eleven spices: cumin seeds (coriander seeds), mustard seeds (fennel seeds), nigella seeds and black pepper.

These ingredients are used in almost every dish. These spices give a distinctive taste to dishes such as dal (lentils), curries, chutneys, pickles, rice, bread, and sweets.

Spices are also important for health reasons. Curcuma helps fight cancer cells. Bad breath is prevented by cloves. Black pepper reduces cholesterol levels. Cinnamon lowers blood pressure. And ginger aids digestion.

A spice rack is a fantastic kitchen tool that allows you experiment with different combinations. You can make your spice mix or buy ready-made blends that contain many of the essential spices.

Some people are against adding spices to their food. Some people believe spices can only mask the natural flavor of food and don't improve it. There is nothing wrong with adding salt or pepper to enhance the flavor of your meals.

Many chefs agree that spices play a crucial role in culinary art. Many dishes would taste bland and boring without spices. You might be inspired to try something new next time you feel adventurous.

How To

How can I store my cooking spices?

I will tell you how to store cooking spices for optimal performance. First, we must understand how food is stored.

Because spices lose their flavour when exposed to the sun, they are best kept out of reach from light. This is due to oxygen combining with organic compounds, such as spices.

To prevent oxidation, spices should be stored in dark cupboards. Spice tends to lose its flavour quickly if these conditions aren't met.

The best way to preserve the flavour of spices is to keep them in airtight jars away from direct sunlight.

To make flavoured drinks, you can add herbs or spices to water. For example, you could mix 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon in 1/2 cup of warm milk and stir it well. Serve immediately by adding a squeeze lemon juice.

Dried herbs can be added to soups stews, casseroles pasta dishes rice dishes salads and desserts. Just sprinkle the spice mix evenly over the dish. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before you serve.

Leftover cooked vegetables, fruits and meats, as well as leftover cheese, breads, crackers, cookies or cakes can be added to favorite recipes for snacks.

Fresh herbs and spices can be enjoyed by being chopped or broken up. You can freeze herbs or spices by placing them on ice cube tray or muffin cups. Once frozen transfer to zip-top plastic bags or freezer bags.
