What's the difference in cooking with whole vs. ground spices? Ground Spices?
There is no difference between cooking whole spices and with ground spices. After harvesting, all spices are ground. So there is no difference in quality.
But the price gap is significant. Whole spices cost more because of the labour involved in processing them. However, the flavor is worth it.
You'll often find extra discounts for bulk purchases when you buy whole spices. A whole bag of cinnamon sticks might be eligible for a discount.
The same goes for nutmeg, cloves, ginger, cardamom, etc. You might be able to save money by buying these spices in bulk.
Ground spices don't last as long as whole spices. Because ground spices lose potency quickly from oxidation, this is why whole spices last longer than ground spices.
We recommend buying whole spices because they add flavor to your recipes.
You can make a delicious curry by using whole turmeric in place of ground turmeric. You can also grind whole coriander leaves to make a spice mix for chicken dishes.
It takes time to grind spices. If you're buying whole spices it makes sense for you to buy large quantities. This will ensure that you don't run out of spices quickly.
What are the 11 Indian spices used in Indian cooking
Indian cuisine includes eleven spices, including cumin, coriander, cumin, mustard, fennel, and nigella seed, as well as black pepper, cloves and cinnamon sticks, dry red chill powder, turmeric, cardamom, and black pepper.
These ingredients can be found used in almost every recipe. These spices lend a unique flavour to dishes such dal (lentils), curries chutneys pickles rice, bread and sweets.
Health benefits can also be attained from spices. For example, turmeric helps fight cancer cells. Cloves protect against bad breath. Black pepper lowers cholesterol. Cinnamon lowers blood pressure. And ginger aids digestion.
A spice rack makes a great kitchen tool. It allows you to experiment with many different combinations of flavours. You have the option to make your own mixes of spices, or you can buy ready-made ones that include all the essential spices.
Some people do not like to add spices to their food. They believe that spices only mask natural flavors and do nothing to improve them. A pinch of salt and pepper can enhance the flavor of your food.
Most chefs agree that spices are an essential part of cooking art. Many dishes would be bland and tasteless without spices. Try a new recipe next time you feel adventurous.
What does Thai spice serve?
It's a term we all have heard, even though we don't know what it actually means. It makes our mouths water when we try it.
It's much more than a spice. It's an ingredient that can add flavor and depth in dishes that otherwise would be bland.
Thousands of recipes call for Thai spices, but few of them include the real deal. Let's discuss how to incorporate these tasty flavors into your meals.
Thais have been cooking with herbs, spices and other flavors since ancient times. Thai is the Sanskrit word that means "to cook".
Many Thais love spicy foods, even today. This preference can often be attributed to Thailand's hot weather, which makes it hard to stay warm without hot beverages. Thais also consume more chili peppers that Americans or Europeans.
A local Asian grocery store is the best place to learn more about Thai spice. There you will find a variety of ingredients such as dried chilies fresh basil leaves curry paste and ground black pepper.
Whole peppercorns, whole cloves, cinnamon sticks and star anise may also be found.
Thai cuisine can use either dry or wet spices. The dry spices are usually ground while the wet spices are crushed or pounded finely.
Dry spices can be added to any dish. For example, ground red pepper is sprinkled onto chicken soup. Wet spices are commonly mixed with oil or butter to form a paste.
Wet spices are usually used in marinades, sauces, and dressings. Some common wet spices include fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, curry paste, and hoisin sauce.
Thai recipes can be prepared at home by knowing which spices pair well with what ingredients.
For example, red pepper flakes is recommended for beef. Use white pepper if you are using seafood like shrimp.
Online ordering is also possible if you don’t have an Asian market. There are many options for exotic herbs, spices and dried chilies.
So next time you get hungry, think about putting on a little extra heat by whipping up one of these tasty Thai recipes!

How To
How to store spices for cooking?
I will tell you how to store cooking spices for optimal performance. First, it is important to understand the science behind how foodstuffs are stored.
Because spice's flavour is diminished by light exposure, it should be stored in airtight containers. This is caused by oxidation, which happens when oxygen and organic compounds combine like spices.
To avoid oxidation, spice should be kept in dark cupboards. Spices lose their flavor quickly if these conditions don't exist.
Keep spices fresh by storing them in airtight jars out of direct sunlight.
You can flavor water by adding herbs and spices. Mix two teaspoons of ground cinnamon and 1/2 cup warm water. Stir well. Add a squeezed lemon juice and serve immediately.
Add dried herbs and spices to soups. 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.
If you want to take advantage of the flavours of fresh herbs and spices, chop or tear them up and add them to foods while they're still hot. You can freeze herbs or spices by placing them on ice cube tray or muffin cups. Once frozen, place them in freezer bags or zip-top bags.
