Were you taught by someone in your family, did you learn from experience, or both?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>I credit most of what I know about spices to my mother. She\u2019s been cooking Indian food for 40+ years, so cooking with spices is so intuitive for her. She doesn\u2019t use measuring teaspoons yet her food is always perfectly spiced. Once I started to observe her in the kitchen, I found myself feeling more confident and eager to experiment with spices in my own cooking.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Why are spices essential for any kitchen and type of cuisine?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Spices are such a fabulous way to enliven virtually any type of cuisine. They can seriously enhance the flavor and aroma of countless dishes, from <\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/rainbowplantlife.com\/vegan-chili\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i>bean chili<\/i><\/a><i> to <\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/rainbowplantlife.com\/tofu-stir-fry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i>tofu stir fries<\/i><\/a><i> to <\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/rainbowplantlife.com\/chewy-vegan-chai-spiced-cookies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i>breakfast cookies<\/i><\/a><i>. They can even jazz up your morning bowl of oatmeal or your favorite banana bread.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>It doesn\u2019t hurt that most spices boast serious health benefits, including <\/i><i>antioxidants and anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic properties, and even glucose- and cholesterol-lowering activities.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>What are the top five must-have spices to keep on hand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>I\u2019m sure most chefs will have varying answers, but for me, if I could choose just five, I\u2019d pick earthy cumin, citrusy coriander, bold turmeric, sweet and warm cinnamon, and some sort of chile flakes for heat. (Red pepper flakes are available everywhere, but my personal favorite is Aleppo pepper.) While I rely on other spices and dried herbs like garlic and onion powder, dried ginger, and oregano, you can get those flavors from the fresh ingredients (e.g., whole onions, ginger, garlic, and fresh oregano), so they wouldn\u2019t be in my top five must-haves.\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>What is the biggest mistake you see people make when it comes to using spices?<\/b><\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-93708 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-960x1439.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"239\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-960x1439.jpg 960w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-1024x1535.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-1200x1799.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-720x1079.jpg 720w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-540x810.jpg 540w, https:\/\/nutritionfacts.org\/app\/uploads\/2023\/05\/nisha-using-spices-2-scaled.jpg 1708w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 239px) 100vw, 239px\"\/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">\n<p><i>Not toasting the spices first! Heat unlocks the volatile oils found inside of spices, causing them to change shape and form more complex flavor compounds. You\u2019re basically getting more flavor bang for your buck when you toast spices.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>If your pot of chili has ever tasted bitter, it\u2019s probably because the recipe simply added the ground spices into the liquid instead of toasting them first. (Usually, you\u2019ll briefly toast your spices after you\u2019ve sauteed the aromatics like onions and garlic.)\u00a0 <\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>What are the best ways to bring out the natural flavors of spices without using oils?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Buy whole spices, toast them, and then grind them.\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Whole spices are a flavor powerhouse compared to pre-ground spices since they have protective seed coatings that keep them fresh for much longer than ground spices.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>If you compare the aroma and flavor of a bottle of pre-ground cumin with freshly toasted whole cumin seeds, the difference is pretty dramatic. The latter has a nuttier, deeper and more complex flavor (and aroma).\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>To toast whole spices, simply preheat a dry frying pan over medium or medium-high heat. Add your spices and shake the pan back and forth or stir from time to time to prevent burning. It\u2019ll take just a few minutes for the spices to turn a few shades darker and become super aromatic.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Take the spices off the heat. Once cooled, grind them using a spice grinder, mortar and pestle, or even a coffee grinder. Now use your ground spices in whatever dish that calls for them. This will take your soup, curry, stew, or whatever else you\u2019re cooking to new heights.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>How can home cooks use spices for the best results? Are there any tried and true strategies for better understanding the flavor profiles of spices and what pairs well together?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>I recommend getting a copy of the <\/i>Vegetarian Flavor Bible<i> book. It lists every imaginable whole food ingredient, including spices, and gives you lots of flavor pairings and sample dishes to spark your imagination.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Learning which spices pair well together (and what quantities to use them in) is something that comes with practice, so don\u2019t be shy about experimenting in the kitchen. You can also look to chefs who are masters of specific cuisines to see how they pair spices together. (YouTube is a fantastic resource.) I often find myself spending hours watching Indian chefs on YouTube. Even if they\u2019re cooking something non-vegan, I inevitably learn something new about spices and how to incorporate them into my cooking.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Are all spices created equal? If not, how can people source quality spices?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>All spices are definitely not created equal. I think it\u2019s pretty easy to view spices as a pre-made commercial product, but spices are actually more like fresh vegetables or fruits. They\u2019re grown by farmers working on farms and in fields, most often in developing countries, and growing and processing them is labor- and time-intensive.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>In general, smaller brands that have shorter supply chains will be able to offer spices that are not only the freshest and most flavorful, but they typically also have more ethical and transparent practices around sourcing, sustainability, and labor.\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Two of my favorite small businesses that source wonderful spices and prioritize fair wages and sustainable sourcing are Burlap and Barrel and Diaspora Co.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>At supermarkets, I like using the brands Frontier Co-op, which offers a large selection of organic and Fair Trade certified spices, and Simply Organic.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>What are the best ways to store spices? What is the general shelf life people should be mindful of?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Away from sunlight and heat, so ideally in your pantry or in a cupboard. If you\u2019ve been storing your spices in a cabinet above your stove or oven, try finding a different spot, as the proximity to heat will damage your spices.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>You also want to minimize their exposure to air, so airtight containers and tight-fitting glass jars or commercial-grade plastic bags are best.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Ground spices typically have a shelf life of six months to a year. Whole spices are usually good for one to two years. Open your spice bottle and take a whiff. If the aroma is faint or barely there, it\u2019s past its prime.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>You can revive older spices a bit by slowly toasting them in a dry pan. For whole spices, toast for three to four minutes over low heat and stir or toss constantly, or until they start to look a bit oily and smell aromatic. You need to be more careful with ground spices; they need just a minute.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>What are some other essential or helpful tips you\u2019d like to share about using spices in cooking?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Go easy on the turmeric! Too often I see home cooks add way too much turmeric. It\u2019s a strong spice, and too much of it will overpower and even ruin your dish. A quarter or half teaspoon is usually sufficient, maybe a teaspoon if you\u2019re cooking a spice-heavy Indian dish. It also needs to cook a bit longer than other ground spices; otherwise, it can taste a bit raw.<\/i><\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">\n<p><b>Please tell us a little bit about your work and career.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>I\u2019m a vegan food blogger, YouTuber, cookbook author, and the creator of Rainbow Plant Life, a destination site for outstanding flavor-packed vegan recipes.
