How To

How to decide what spices to buy?

Cooking requires you to learn how to choose the right herbs for your recipes. There are hundreds of options, so where do you begin when deciding which ones to add to your pantry?

There are three main factors to consider when choosing spices: flavour profile, shelf life, and cost. You can choose to use different flavour profiles depending on whether your cooking involves meat, poultry or fish, vegetables and pasta. Once you've settled on a category, it's time to narrow down your choices.

The shelf life of spices can also vary. Some spices keep forever, while some others are prone to deterioration quickly. For example, cayenne pepper lasts for years, whereas oregano loses its potency after two months. Price is another important factor. Spices can cost anywhere from $1 per tablespoon up to $100 per ounce. This means you have to strike the right balance between quality and cost.

It's also important to determine if organic or nonorganic ingredients you prefer. Organic products contain fewer chemicals and pesticides than conventional alternatives, making them better for your health and the environment. However, they often cost more, so you'll need to weigh those costs against the benefits.

Online shopping is the best way for you to make sure that you have the right spices in your kitchen. Online retailers provide extensive information about each product including reviews, prices, ratings and ratings.

Once you have narrowed your selection, you are able to place an order directly at the retailer. You should store your items in airtight containers, away from heat and sunlight once you receive them.
