Cinnamon can be used in form of sticks or powder. It should be stored in a cool, dark and dry place as it otherwise quickly loses its flavour.
Cardamom: The spicy-sweet cardamom for instance is a great source of iron and is native to southern India. It gives an exotic, unique taste and can be perfectly combined with cinnamon and ginger.
Cloves can be used in sweet and savoury dishes and go extremely well with red meat and apples. Use them to refine your dishes.
When buying fresh Ginger, make sure its firm and not wrinkled. It should be finely chopped or grated to unfold the full spicy-exotic taste.
