One of my favorites is a Lebanese flavor profile. Mint, garlic, cumin, coriander, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, sumak, tumeric, and even saffron. Because of that my spice cabinet actually consists of 26 spices. Having them in tins with clear lids and stuck to the inside of my pantry door, so I can see which is which at a glance, is the key. It makes me so glad that Sprouts has such a nice bulk spice section out here. Those plastic bottles can be so expensive.
Love this presentation, very information dense! Let's not leave out the anise, cardamom (and saffron) on the Indian team, if for nothing else than flavoring the rice. And I love piles of fresh cilantro in Mexican-style cooking. And Old Bay would even make that old shoe taste good :)
Wow. that was a lot of Saffrron! haha. This video came at a convenient time because I just went to The Spice House here in Chicago and re-filled my spice rack with over 100 bucks worth of spices. Thanks Chef Todd!
Put some old bay on fries after frying or before baking if you like old bay. I went and looked through my shelves and found a 10 year old bottle of curry powder when I was cleaning the old out. Still smelled good but not chancing it since I have only lived here for roughly 8 years lol.
Good job, very informative. Yesterday at the supermkt I went to buy nutmeg and was amazed how expensive a brand was. Like $7 for a small container. The store brand was way cheaper. I wonder if there's any difference.
@ndktube First of, you're better off getting some whole nutmegs and grinding them as needed. Second, supermarket spices are generally overpriced and are often stale by the time you actually go to use them. Check one of the specialty spice sellers like Penzy's or similar. The cost is often less and you'll get better quality.
burritos aren't mexican and taco bell is not mexican its tex mex and coco is from mexico they make chicken mole .coco and chili peppers originated in mexican as well tomato, corn .

Someone should make a periodic table of the seasonings.

@CrimFerret
For some reason getting spices online never even occurred to me. I'll check it out thanks.
