Cooking With Spices

To learn how to maximize flavor in your cooking by learning what makes spices so exciting.  You as a cook, the artist,  your spices are your paints used to bring a blank canvas (or dish) to life! They allow you to be creative and adventurous with your cooking and best of all, they prevent you from eating another bland meal. Spices can transform a meal by adding a range of flavors, from a hint of sweetness to a kick of heat. They also give beautiful aromas that are often our first determining factor for whether we want to eat a meal or not.
