Frequently Asked Questions
Is it possible to add spice to a drink?
I love how spices bring flavour to food. But how can you make them live when they're used in drinks.
Spices add a wonderful depth to any beverage. A dash of cinnamon and nutmeg can make any beverage more delicious, including coffee, tea, hot cocoa, and cocktails.
But most recipes call for ground spices, meaning you'll need fresh whole spices. It makes sense but is time-consuming and expensive.
This is where magic happens. With your creativity, you can turn your favorite spices into easy-to-use powdered products. Mix them with your favorite drinks to make delicious spiced beverages.
There are two methods to make these powders. One method involves grinding whole spices to a fine powder. A mortar and pestle is another method to grind the spices to a finer consistency.
You'll find it easier to make powder than whole spices, regardless of the method. Powder also keeps well so you won't run dry.
You can even experiment with mixing different spices to create new flavours. For minty water you could mix spearmint with peppermint leaves. You can also make spicy ginger-ginger tea by combining ginger and cardamom seeds.
Once you've learned how to make powdered spices from scratch, you can apply the same process to herbs. Some popular herbs include basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and sage.
The possibilities are limitless. Powdered spices can be used to add flavour to beverages or enhance the flavor of dishes like soups, salads and pasta.
What are the 11 Indian spices?
The eleven spices of Indian cuisine are coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds, mustard seeds, nigella seeds, black pepper, cloves, cinnamon sticks, dry red chili powder, turmeric, and cardamom.
These ingredients are used in almost every dish. These spices impart a distinct flavor to dishes such as curries (lentils), curries and chutneys. They also add a unique taste to rice, bread, and sweets.
For health reasons, spices are also beneficial. 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 own blends of spices or buy ready-made mixes containing many essential spices.
Some people prefer not to add any spices to their food. They believe spices only mask natural flavor and do little to enhance them. There is nothing wrong with adding salt or pepper to enhance the flavor of your meals.
Most chefs agree that spices are an essential part of cooking art. Many dishes would taste bland and boring without spices. Try a new recipe next time you feel adventurous.
Does Thai use ginger?
The answer is yes. Ginger is used extensively in traditional Thai cooking. It is commonly added to stir-fries or soups. Ginger is also used in desserts such as lassis.
Ginger is a native to China and Japan. The origins of ginger go back over 5,000 year. It is thought that it originated in Southeast Asia, where its medicinal uses were cultivated.
Ginger is known for stimulating digestion and relieving nausea. It may even help prevent migraines. Ginger is also known to reduce muscle spasms and joint pains as well as treating arthritis.
Ginger is most commonly used fresh in Thailand. The ginger root is cut into thin strips, dried and stored in a sealed container for future use. From Asian markets, ginger root can be bought in cans and jars.

How To
How to store cooking spices?
This article will show you how to store cooking spice for optimal performance. First, it is important to understand the science behind how foodstuffs are stored.
Keep spices out of direct sunlight as light will reduce their flavor. This is due to oxygen combining with organic compounds, such as spices.
Spices should be kept in the dark cupboards and sealed tightly in airtight containers to prevent oxidation. If these conditions are not met, spices will quickly lose their flavour.
You can preserve the flavor of spices by keeping them in sealed jars, away from direct sunlight.
For a flavoured beverage, add herbs and spices. For example, you could mix 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon in 1/2 cup of warm milk and stir it well. Add a squeeze or lemon juice to the mixture and serve immediately.
Dry herbs and spices can also be used in soups, stews or casseroles. 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.
To get the best flavours from fresh herbs and spices, cut them or tear them and add them to hot foods. You can also freeze herbs and spices by placing them in ice cube trays or muffin cups and freezing them. Once frozen, place them in freezer bags or zip-top bags.
