Spices

The word spice comes from the Old French word espice, which became epice and latter SPICE!! A spice is a dried seed, fruit, root, bark, or vegetative substance primarily used for flavoring, coloring or preserving food. A spice may be available in several forms: fresh, whole dried, or pre-ground dried. Generally, spices are dried.Since spices tend to have strong flavors and are used in small quantities, spices tend to add few calories to food, even though many spices, especially those made from seeds, contain high portions of fat, protein, and carbohydrate by weight. Many spices, however, can contribute significant portions of micronutrients to the diet. India produces 70% of global spice production.
