…Other than salt and pepper

For me it’s cumin. It’s one of the few spices I buy in bulk and actually use up my supply.

In the winter it may lean towards cardamom thanks to copious amounts of chia.

    I planted herbs all around my house, so I always have fresh herbs available. But I almost always end up using thyme, occasionally rosemary.

    People here keep saying garlic, which I also use extensively but I don’t think of it as a spice.

      I don’t think garlic is a spice until the moment it’s dried and ground. Then maybe it’s a spice. Fresh garlic, I agree isnt a spice it’s… what is garlic a vegetable?

      What the hell is garlic?

        I never use it dried, probably why I don’t think of it as a spice :) In Danish, garlic is called ‘white onion’ so I probably mentally classify it as belonging to that family, which it also does belong to botanically.

          I agree to this, at least, my mind works the same. They are root vegetables when they are fresh.

          Garlic powder and onion powder, sure could be spice, they are afterall, in the spice section. Onion, garlic found in produce.
