I don't even know if you could store spices for that long, but with the speed, that I was using it, there's no way I could finish up the whole thing any faster.

Since most of my cooking these days revolves around vegetables and making them as delicious as possible, I started using Curry powder much more often and in much bigger amounts.

Instead of the previous ½ teaspoon of Curry powder per recipe, now I don't shy away from using a tablespoon or more of the spice.

Its bright and recognizable flavor instantly elevates the taste of any dish.
