Frequently Asked Questions

What is the value of spices?

A spice can be described as a seasoning to enhance flavour in food. Spices can take many forms such as powders (liquids), oils, pastes and seeds. They can also be known as condiments, flavours, and flavor.

It's a great way of adding variety to your meals by spiceing them up. Many spices can be added for additional flavor and excitement.

A few drops of hot sauce can make a soup taste better. Mixing a couple of cayenne peppers in a cup rice can make it even more delicious.

You can experiment with spice recipes best if you use fresh ingredients. If you buy dried herbs, look for those that are organic. Fresh herbs will last longer than dried.

While some spices are essential for cooking, others might be better to avoid. If you have a history or liver disease, cinnamon sticks can be dangerous. Ginger also contains high amounts of coumarin. However, it is much more concentrated. It's safe for people who don't have a history of liver problems.

What Spices or Herbs Go Best With Potatoes?

A potato is a great side dish for almost any meat. If you've been cooking potatoes lately, you may already know there are more ways to serve them than simply mashed.

From salads to casseroles, soups to pasta dishes, these versatile vegetables make tasty additions to most meals. Did you know that potatoes can be paired with many spices and herbs?

These delicious recipes will spice up your next potato recipe.

Can you add spice to a beverage?

I love how spices bring flavour to food. But how do you make them come alive when used in drinks?

Spices can bring out the best of any beverage. From coffee to tea, hot chocolate to cocktails, there's nothing more satisfying than adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to a glass of wine or beer.

Most recipes require ground spices. You will need to use fresh whole spices. It makes sense but is time-consuming and expensive.

This is where magic happens. With a little creativity, you can make your favorite spices easy to use in powdered form. These spices can be mixed into favorite beverages to create tasty spiced drinks.

These powders can be made in two ways. One way is to grind whole spices into fine powder. Another uses a mortar and pestle to grind the spices into a finer consistency.

Whichever method you choose, you'll find that the resulting powder is much easier to measure out and store than whole spices. Powder also keeps well so you won't run dry.

You can experiment with mixing spices to create different flavours. For minty water you could mix spearmint with peppermint leaves. Or ginger and cardamom pods to make spicy ginger tea.

Once you are proficient in making powdered spice, you can also apply this technique to herbs. Some popular herbs include basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and sage.

There are so many possibilities. Use powdered spices to give your beverages extra flavour or to enhance the taste of dishes such as soups, salads, and pasta.

Dry spices can be added to any dish. A good example is chicken soup with ground red pepper. In order to make a paste out of wet spices, oil or butter is often used.

Wet spices can be used in sauces, dressings, and marinades. Wet spices are used in many dishes, including fish sauce, oyster, sesame, sesame, sesame oil and curry paste.
