How To

How can I store my cooking spices?

I will tell you how to store cooking spices for optimal performance. First, let's understand how foods are stored.

Because spice's flavour is diminished by light exposure, it should be stored in airtight containers. This is due oxygen reacting with organic compounds such that spices, causing oxidation.

To avoid oxidation, spices must be kept in dark cupboards. If these conditions are not met, spices will quickly lose their flavour.

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

You can add herbs and spices to water to make a flavoured drink. Mix 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup of warm liquid and stir. Serve immediately by adding a squeeze lemon juice.

Add dried herbs and spices to soups. Place the spice mixture on top of the dish and allow it to rest for 5-10 mins before serving.

As snacks, leftover cooked vegetables and fruits can be added into your favourite recipes.

You can enjoy the fresh flavours of fresh herbs or spices by chopping them up and adding them to food while they are still hot. You can also freeze spices and herbs by placing them in muffin cups or ice trays and freezing them. Once frozen, transfer them to freezer bags and zip-top plastic bag.
