Spices and herbs can be found in every kitchen without exception, but not every housewife knows how to use them correctly.
Often, aromatic herbs added to a particular dish do not give off their full taste and aroma.
That’s why it makes no difference whether you used cumin, rosemary or oregano in a pizza or salad – the dish is unlikely to taste any different from its, so to speak, economy version.
To prevent this from happening, it is worth helping the spices to open up.
To do this, you will have to resort to a little trick, which, however, is actively used by knowledgeable chefs.
So, to ensure that spices or herbs give off all their flavor and mind-blowing aroma, it is worth mixing them with a small amount of olive oil in advance.
Leave the resulting “preparation” for 10-15 minutes so that it can infuse properly.
After this simple procedure, you can safely add spices to the dish - this time its taste will sparkle with new colors.
