As counterintuitive as it may seem, spices should never be stored near your stove.
Heat damages spices and weakens their flavor. Spices should be kept in a cool, dry, dark area of your kitchen, like in the pantry. Red-colored spices including red pepper, paprika and chili powder should always be stored in the fridge, especially in hot and humid climates.
Seeds like poppy and sesame should also be stored in the fridge to prevent the oils from going rancid. For easy access, store spices on a lazy Susan or on a staggered shelf so you can clearly see labels and quickly determine what spices you have on hand. A drawer works great as well, as long as you can clearly see everything and it all fits properly. In our kitchen, my husband used a few scrap pieces of wood to create simple drawer racks to hold the spice jars.
As you transfer your spices to jars, it is a good idea to include a sticker or mark the date on the bottom of each container. When it comes to herbs, nothing beats fresh. A windowsill herb garden with a few basics like parsley and cilantro can really up your culinary game. Try a cool countertop pod like the Miracle-Gro AeroGarden to keep your herbs fresh and growing all winter long. If you have a black thumb, freeze-dried herbs or herbs frozen in cubes like these by Dorot are great alternatives to fresh.
You can also make your own by chopping herbs and storing them in broth or olive oil, then freezing them ice cube trays. If you purchase fresh sometimes pricey herbs from the market, store in open bags with damp paper toweling to help them last longer. Go to TOI. The Times of India.
