Some people buy dresses. I buy spices. They're my vice. To me, food isn't worth eating if it's bland and flavorless. Novice cooks might reach for the unhealthy trinity of fat, salt or sugar for flavor, and they'll turn out some tasty food--but it won't be healthy. A good cook knows that flavor starts with your ingredients. Start with wholesome food that's as close to the source as possible (as unprocessed as can be), and use herbs and spices to impart flavor. Spices are pricey, but a little goes a long way. Learn how to maximize flavor and get the most out of your investment by watching the video below. I'll share my tips for storing spices and using them to add flavor to your favorite foods. I've also created a cookbook with some of the herb and spice combinations I've created for SparkRecipes. They have no salt! What is your favorite spice combination? |
