Turmeric and cardamom are reminiscent of the flavorful Asian cuisine, and paprika and cayenne pepper are often seen in authentic Spanish cuisine.

The history of the spice
Some of the oldest spices we know of are pepper, anise, turmeric, cloves and ginger. In the Middle Ages, the spice trade really began in Europe, and spices were thus traded across national borders. At the time, spices were one of the most important trade items in the world, which was reflected in the high prices of the time. Today, the most purchased spices in Denmark are ground cinnamon, whole black pepper, ground black pepper, curry, ground cardamom, thyme, ground ginger and rosemary.
Add flavor to your food with all kinds of spices
The sense of taste is an important part of our everyday life. Most people do not just eat to eat but to enjoy their meal. In order to stimulate our taste buds, the food must also taste of something. There is a sea of spices full of flavours. You can find strong, mild, sweet, salty and bitter flavors – to name just a few examples.
In addition to tasting great, spices also smell great. You will therefore both delight your sense of taste as well as your sense of smell when you buy spices.
Regardless of which world cuisine you want to cook from and to what extent, spices are never a bad idea to use in cooking.

Condiments are not just salt and pepper. It's a whole world of flavors that can spice up the otherwise boring traditional cooking. All spices from Nordic Tea are of high quality, which can be both tasted and smelled. Good, high-quality ingredients make a huge difference to the taste experience, and this also applies to spices.
The majority of our spices are organic, so you can use them in your cooking with peace of mind. When you click on the spice, you can also read more about each one and get inspiration for how to use it.
Store your spices properly
It is important that you store your spices correctly so that the flavor does not disappear. You can e.g. put your spices in tight containers or put a clamp on the bag when you are not using them. In this way, the spices maintain their intense flavor. Although many people put their spices over the stove by the hood, the heat and humidity can dull the flavor. It is therefore best to put the spices in a kitchen cupboard, which closes off moisture, heat and light.
