Tips for Storing & using Spices & Herbs

  • Buy and store your spices in whole form, if possible. Grind or powder them in a grinder or mortar & pestle just prior to using because they rapidly lose their freshness and flavour once ground.

  • Spices should be stored in airtight containers in a cool dark place. Spices lose their potency due to heat, light, and air.

  • As a general rule follow the following guideline for storing the spices: Whole Amchur, Amchoor, Mango powdercorns: 5 years
    Other whole spices: 2 years
    Ground spices: 6 months to 1 year
    Spices kept beyond these times lose their flavor and potency.

  • Do not store spices & herbs in refrigerator, humidity will destroy them. You can store them in the freezer in tightly sealed containers.
