Techniques from TasteOfThePlace
How to explore new spices without getting overwhelmed
Start with a small set of spices, taste and smell them, then experiment in small amounts and expand gradually.
Buy cardamom as whole pods and crack them to remove seeds
Choose whole cardamom pods for longer-lasting flavour, crack them open, remove the seeds, then grind the seeds when needed.
How to grind spices with a mortar and pestle (without making a mess)
Use small batches, cover the mortar with your hand, pound to break up, then twist-grind to your desired texture.
Grind spices fresh (like coriander) for the best flavour
Buy certain spices whole and grind them right before cooking to get noticeably better flavour than pre-ground.
Buy whole peppercorns and grind pepper as needed
Use whole black peppercorns and grind them when you cook because pre-ground pepper loses flavour quickly.
Choose kosher or sea salt instead of table salt for better flavour and control
Use kosher or sea salt (fine for general use, coarser for finishing) and avoid typical table salt, which can taste harsher and require more to season.
