How to choose and store dried spices and herbs?
Spices and herbs are an integral part of everyday cooking, and are used to add depth of flavor and aroma to a variety of dishes. When herbs are sold as dried spices, they give dishes a more concentrated flavor than fresh herbs. To achieve the best flavors, it is important to know how to choose herbs and ensure that their quality and taste are preserved over time.
What is the difference between dry spice and herb spice?
Spices and herbs come from different parts of the plant. Ground spices such as cumin or turmeric are made from the seeds, fruits or roots of the plant and tend to be concentrated in flavor. On the other hand, herbs are the green leaves of plants such as cilantro or oregano, which can be found in their dry or fresh form. Drying the herbs concentrates their flavor, so they are an excellent addition to various dishes. You can use them separately or buy a ready-made herb mixture like "Herb de Provence".
