Spices

Spices refers to whole dried spices and botanicals such as cinnamon stick and vanilla bean used across many cuisines to add aroma and flavor; they are commonly used in small amounts to season both sweet and savory dishes. In culinary use they’re prized for concentrated flavor and long shelf life. Nutritionally, these ingredients are unusually dense in plant compounds and micronutrients for a spice blend — they provide about 25g of fiber per 100g and are good sources of minerals like iron and manganese, though in normal cooking amounts they contribute only small absolute amounts to a meal. From a health perspective, whole spices and dried botanicals are rich in antioxidant polyphenols and other phytochemicals that contribute to flavor and may have protective effects; because they’re used sparingly, their main value is as a low-calorie way to boost taste and add trace micronutrients.
