HOW TO USE A SPICE BLEND

Using a spice blend is an art that enriches cooking and awakens the senses.

On YouTube you have seen my passion for spices, here I offer you the expert guide to help you master this art and get the most out of each mixture.

Here, you will know how to flavor all your meats, wok, vinegar, seafood, paella and all cuisines around the world: 

  • Knowledge of Spices  : Before using a blend, it is essential to understand the characteristics of each spice it contains. Spices can vary in intensity and flavor, from the earthy notes of cumin to the sweet touches of cinnamon. This understanding will help you decide how and when to use them.
  • Dosage  : Dosage is crucial. Spices should complement, not overpower, the dish. Start with a small amount; you can always add more, but you can't take away. A general rule of thumb is to use about one teaspoon of mixture for every four servings.
  • Infusion Time  : Spices release their aromas and flavors over time. For simmered dishes, add the spice mixture at the start of cooking. For quick cooking, like stir-frying, consider marinating ingredients beforehand to intensify flavors.
  • Complementarity  : Combine your spice blend with ingredients that will enhance the flavors. For example, a spicy blend can be balanced with the sweetness of root vegetables or the richness of meats.
  • Cooking Techniques  : Some spices benefit from dry roasting to intensify their flavor. Heat the spices in a dry pan before adding them to your dish. Others, like dried herbs, can be added at the end of cooking to preserve their freshness.
  • Storage  : Spice blends should be stored in a cool, dry place away from light to maintain their freshness and potency. Use airtight containers to extend their lifespan.
  • Experimentation  : Don't be afraid to experiment. Spice blends are versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes, from meats and fish to vegetables and even desserts.
  • Balance of Flavors  : Look for a balance of sweet, salty, sour and bitter flavors in your dish. Spices can help achieve this balance, adding depth and complexity to flavors.

By following these tips, you can turn any meal into a rich, memorable dining experience. Spice blends are powerful tools in any cook's arsenal, capable of transporting your guests to far-flung and exotic destinations through the simple act of eating.
