For thousands of years, spices and herbs have been used in cooking as a simple and economic way to add flavour to any dish. The difference between a spice and herb comes from which part of the plant is used. The leaf of a plant is used as a culinary herb, while any other part of the plant (often dried seeds, bark or roots) is a spice. Keep in mind that herbs can be used both dry and fresh; spices are only used in their dry form.Now let's focus on the spices.There are five commonly used spices are described below.

Often used in taco seasoning and curries, this spice can be found with different levels of heat (mild, medium and hot).
