Spice's are so inviting especially when cooking begins and instantly off float a long lingering trail of aromatic smells.I relate such delicious aroma's to Winters recipes; stew's, tagine's & currie's are the perfect companion to a mid week dinner at home. There is no better time to experiment with spices in the kitchen then with the summoning of winter.
Enjoy!

ps - Spices have a shelf life, check your cupboard and throw away any out of date herbs & spices. Your food will thank you lovingly by giving you the best possible flavour.
