An old India spice shop with its old boxes and drawers captured my curiosity.

Sea Salt and Peppercorn.

Imagination and love are good spices.

Ginger, turmeric, black pepper, cloves.

Looking close...on Friday!

I seem to be eating or drinking infusions of this stuff all the time!

Turmeric seems to aid, well just about everything, so I use it a lot!

Istanbul‘s Egyptian (Spice) Bazaar (Mısır Çarşısı, built 1664), at the southern end of the Galata Bridge near the Eminönü ferry docks, is filled with the fragrance of the exotic East. Spices, dried fruits, cheeses, sausages, jams, nuts and seeds, lokum (Turkish Delight) and other edibles fill most of the shops, though jewelry and other high-margin goods have begun to move in.

Smile on Saturday#Spices and condiments

These are dried herbs. To keep the color on them for a long time, I pick whole branches with leaves and let them hang upside down in a dark, dry place with plenty of fresh air. In the jars at the top of the picture are dried leaves, then I pick only the leaves but they fade quickly, the taste and smell remain the same. These are rosemary, sage and thyme from my garden.

HSoS!

Spice is life. It depends upon what you like... have fun with it. Yes, food is serious, but you should have fun with it.

This is small part of dry spices from my kitchen.

Nature, art and cooking are my three great love and I am the happiest when I try to combine all three at the same time.
