Whole Spices

Whole spices, unprocessed seeds, roots, or bark, retain their natural oils and intense flavors, offering a longer shelf life. They're ideal for toasting, grinding fresh, or infusing into dishes for deeper, more complex aromas and tastes. Use them in broths, marinades, and spice blends for maximum flavor impact.
