Purchasing and Storing the Spices

A rack of spices neatly displayed on a kitchen counter is typical; however, this practice drastically reduces the life of this most vital element in your Ayurvedic meal. Sunlight rapidly degrades the prana in spices, so keep yours in a dark cabinet away from the light.

Also, when you buy spices, you should pay attention to how they are preserved. You don’t want to consume anything that’s sat on a shelf for years. Look for sellers that offer spices in light-blocking containers, particularly if you’re purchasing ground spices since volatile oils degrade quickly. Purchase modest quantities from a reliable provider. When using them at home, don’t be afraid to compost anything that seems or smells old; if it doesn’t smell fresh, it won’t taste fresh and won’t promote digestion.

For grinding spices, use an electric coffee grinder or a mortar and pestle. Both tools have benefits; an electric grinder can crush stubborn seeds into a fine powder, but the mortar and pestle require more of your effort. Try both and see which one you prefer.

Remember to have fun and try new things, since the only way to learn is to explore and experiment. Direct experience is the most effective approach to learning.
