It’s a good point. How many times have you cleaned your pantry out and had to throw all those old herbs and spices away? Keep it simple. Have only what you use regularly. I find I use turmeric, garam masala, cumin seeds and powder, paprika, chilli, oregano, bay leaf and mixed herbs. Some stores allow you to buy only the quantity you need, which I think is fantastic.
