About spices
Whole or ground spices sold by weight rather than in a supermarket jar. This pack is 500 g net. At the quantities below that is about 100 servings. That works out at S$4.96 per 100 g.
Also known as whole spices, dried spices.
What people use it for
Used in braises, curries, stocks and rice. Whole spices are toasted or fried at the start of a dish; ground goes in later.
How to prepare it
Toast whole spices in a dry pan for under a minute until they smell, then use. Ground spice loses its aroma fast once heated, so add it late.
Keeping it
Airtight and out of the light. Whole spices keep years, ground keeps months.
Questions people ask
Whole or ground?
