RE: What's Life Without a Bit of Spice? 🌿🫚🌶️

I've never been a spicy person. I have a jar of oregano at home, bought it the other month and I can't remember what I used it for. I have a rosemary plant outside that I use to roast lamb or make focaccia, and some fresh bay leaves in the freezer for stewed duck. Thats about it. The most we have is tumeric, but not for cooking. We have a shot of ginger, black pepper and tumeric every morning.

This year I want to start a mini herb garden pot. I've sowed some thyme, they've started to germinate, no action from the sage seeds, I've propogate some basil bought from the store last month, and a rosemary plant I propogate last year. Let's see if my little project will materialise this season

Wow really? But what do you cook without any spice???

Chinese cooking, is mainly stir fry, so we let the flavours from the ingredients, and do its job. We use sauces like soy sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce to enhance flavour.

Are ginger, spring onions, garlic considered spices? We use a lot of that, fresh.
