Tips on Using and Storing Posh Nosh Spice Blends:
Don’t store Posh Nosh spice blends directly above the stove as the steam from cooking may get into the spice blends causing them to mold.
To retain their freshness after opening, store in a cool dark place.
Make sure that the packaging is properly closed to help keep them airtight or better still transfer them to a glass jar with a tight lid.
Add the spice blends to saute vegetables just at the time they are soft, and before adding the liquid to the pan. This allows the vegetables to really absorb the spice blends adding to a richer flavored dish.
When using one of the hot spicy Posh Nosh spice blends it is better to start with a small amount, allow the dish to simmer before tasting, and adding more as the ‘heat’ can increase during the cooking process.
Another tip for using Posh Nosh hot spicy blends is if you are making a dish for a group of people that have different levels of ‘heat’ tolerance, is to go easy on the amount that you add to the dish while cooking it, and keep it as a condiment for the heat lovers to add at the time of eating.
Don’t be shy to add different Posh Nosh spice blends together, especially when making a salad dressing or stir fry.
Don’t get caught up in thinking that a particular Posh Nosh spice blends are only suitable to use with certain ingredients. Honestly just have fun with them, use your imagination and see what works well together.
Enjoy!
