FAQS

WHY COOK WITH SPICES?

Most bland tasting healthy meals can be turned into delicious creations without the added calories with spices.

DO SPICES EXPIRE?

Spices generally do not expire. However, they do lose their potency, pungency and hence flavor when exposed to air, light and high temperatures.

As a general rule, ground spices last upto 1 year while whole spices can last upto 3 years when stored correctly.

HOW DO I STORE MY SPICES & HERBS?
