Keeping an eye on your spice rack and particularly how long the spices have been there can make all the difference when it comes to creating delicious meals.
While natural products with no additives are all the rage, that also means more vigilance is required. “The price for naturalness is that you have to deal with it differently,” explains Manuela Mahn from Bamberg. She is a lecturer in the commodity science of spices and herbs. Her advice: Have the spices you need ready and don’t pour the powdered mixture directly into the pot, but take out the required amount with a teaspoon.
