Frequently Asked Questions
What Herbs or Spices go Best with Potatoes

What's the difference between cooking whole and with ground spices? Ground Spices?
There isn't any difference between cooking with whole spices and ground spices. After harvesting, spices are ground. So there is no difference in quality.
However, the price difference is substantial. Because of the labor involved in making whole spices, they cost more. However, the flavor is worth it.
You'll often find extra discounts for bulk purchases when you buy whole spices. You might get a discount if your entire bag is of cinnamon sticks.
The same goes for nutmeg, cloves, ginger, cardamom, etc. You might be able to save money by buying these spices in bulk.
Ground spices last much longer than whole spices. Ground spices lose their potency very quickly due to oxidation.
The main reason we recommend whole spices over dried is that they can add lots of flavor to recipes.
Whole turmeric can be used to make delicious curry. You can also use whole coriander to create a spice combination for chicken dishes.
The process of grinding spices takes a lot of time. It makes sense to purchase large quantities of whole spices when you are buying them. You won't run low on spices if you buy large quantities.
What Thai spice should I use to cook Thai food in my own kitchen?

Cinnamon provides sweetness while black pepper enhances the flavours. Coriander seeds add a spicy kick, while turmeric gives curry powder its signature yellow colour. Cayenne peppers provide heat and cilantro provides freshness. A final ingredient is cinnamon, which adds depth and complexity.
Each of these spices can be found at your local grocery, but you may prefer to buy them online.

How To
How to Cut Shiitake Mushrooms?
The shiitakes grow well. They are fine. But how do we cut them without cutting ourselves? We've tried everything. Even the scissors. But they just keep slipping from our hands. What's the matter?
There's a trick to that. Put a rubber band around your mushroom stem and twist it tight. You won't slip or cut yourself.
You might think that it seems too simple. It is. But it's also very effective.
The rubber band makes stems slippery, making them feel more natural when picked up. The stem can be held securely.
Do it! You'll be amazed at how much easier it is to cut mushrooms now.
