      I am not a pro, but I have used a bunch of spices trough out my days. In my experience you should try to avoid having open containers and open them only when you need to. I am pretty sure that most spices oxidize when in contact with air. This is why it is good to grind your own spices instead of buying powders, since there is less surface area for the oxygen to react with then.
      Spices that handles being dried well contains high amount of oils that gives them the flavors. Most, if not all, oils react with oxygen and becomes ruined.

    Years ago Spices were the wealth of the world. Spice merchants travelled across dangerous seas to bring spices from port to port.
    Say a woman is preparing to go to a formal function... She chooses an elegant gown,shoes,has her hair & make up done.... Spices are like the embellishments of the jewels she chooses to compliment & add the finishing touches.

    First off I want to thank you for producing these videos.
    Until today I thought happiness would never land on my doorstep when it came to learning to make food that could taste good. I had almost lost hope. Seriously my food has been tasting like nursing home food flavor for years. I could go to a friends house or family members house and still just assumed I could not cook period. That it was not a gift I was given. But because of you I can now have hope again that if I try some of these ideas that I will blow the roof off the house with flavor. Gosh big hugs guys. Thanks so much. Hubby will be real happy. He doesn’t complain about the food but it needed light shed on it. Thanks for this. Best to you both.

  • @MegaBanne
    @MegaBanne 4 года назад +37

    Spices, in my experience, tend to react with the air and oxidize. This causes them the lose flavor. So keep them in an air tight container that you only open when you need to. This is also the reason why you should buy your spices whole and then grind them right before you use them. The more ground your spices are when stored the more surface area there is for the spices to react.

      Spices that contains essential oils do react with oxygen.
      But I guess water soluble essences would hydrolyze.

      Even though I've personally witnessed kitchens with nothing but salt, pepper, and maybe an old bottle of pre-mixed "spice", I must say the idea of forgetting to spice your food is completely puzzling to me. Selecting the spices for a dish is easily step number one or two for my mise en place.
      My first recommendation to anyone wishing to improve their cooking (assuming they already know basics) is to buy whole spices and grind them yourself. The spices retain their character better and you can vary the coarseness according to the spice and/or cooking requirements. Don't waste money on pre-ground spice mixes, e.g. "chicken spice", it's usually loaded with filler and lacks character.

      @@joshuajohnson5193 So glad you joined the club. It's easy to forget that even a moderately varied spice drawer or rack requires a worldwide supply chain to keep it stocked (esp. for those of you living in colder climes).
      If you like frozen desserts find a recipe for kulfi, it's so simple yet tasty: [evaporated] milk, sugar, cardamom, and almonds. Some people blanch the almonds, but I like the skins. Of course as always there are avenues for variation. You don't need an ice-cream maker, just a metal bowl, a larger bowl for it to fit in, a spoon, salt and ice. You can even reuse the salt. If you are evaporating the milk yourself I would recommend a wide pot/pan it goes faster and I find it is less likely to boil over. Just take it slow and skim the skin off every so often (you can eat it or make glue from it).

    A blend I like to make for grilled chicken is homemade dehydrated lemon peel, dehydrated onion, dehydrated garlic, ground in a mortar and pestle with some black peppercorns, sea salt, cinnamon, and home-grown freshly dehydrated basil. Coat the chicken with olive oil, and rub in the blend. Grill breasts for about 7 minutes each side. Freaking delicious! I can't tell you how much of each ingredient, because I don't know; I just eyeball it after years of experimenting.

    Honestly just take interest in spices. Taste those spices. Don't use spices like "Spice mix for chicken" from shop. Use actual dry herbs and stuff. I have dry pepper which I grind myself and then sprinkle on food I cook. Learn the taste of those spices and then you can make fresh mix of spices for your dishes that are adjusted by you. I have a bunch of containers of single spices or a mix of spices. Shop mix of spices is pretty much just some powder while hand made mix will contain different herbs, peppers and other stuff that are visible to the eye.
    Do it couple of times and then you mix stuff naturally after a while.
