Make every meal that includes organic spices an experience in enhancing health and well-being.
Spices add to the colour, aroma and flavour of the food that makes food more enjoyable.
Spicing food is also a method of preserving food - the hotter the climate, the increased
use of spices. Food that is prepared fresh always tastes better and it's no different with
using freshly harvested, organically grown spices.
Organic spices are grown without the use of artificial fertilisers or pesticides. A well
managed drying process avoids the need to treat spices with preservatives or chemicals after
harvest. Certified Organic Spices is your only guarantee that the spices have been grown &
harvested organically.
Eating food made with spices is a matter of personal choice. Spices like Chilli come in some 200
varieties, each with different pungency, and not all of them have high heat content. The colour of
chilli has no relation to its pungency. In fact, intense red chilli is used to produce natural
red colour.
Spices are not just pungent. Did you know that some spices are sweet, some sour, some
bitter and some astringent. In fact in the ancient cultures of India & China, it is
suggested using all five flavours with salt will increase the digestion & absorption of
food. Though the origins of five-spice powder are lost to history, the ancient Chinese
developed this spice mix that encompasses all five tastes: sweet, sour, bitter, salty
and pungent or spicy. Similarly, according to Ayurveda, the ancient system of healing
from India, spice mixes including the 6 tastes are used to minimise cravings and balance
the appetites.
