Many researchers have attempted to explain why hot Spices are pleasant to taste. It seems the burning sensation is the pain of nerve endings on the tongue. This releases endorphins, the body's natural painkiller, giving rise to pleasurable and even euphoric sensations.
Flowers, leaves, roots, bark, seeds and bulbs (the simplest of natural ingredients) are used in endless combinations to produce an infinite variety of flavours: sweet, sharp, hot, sour, spicy, aromatic, tart, mild, fragrant and pungent. Their tastes and aromas combine to create a kaleidoscope of exotic flavours to delight the palate. It is best to obtain spices in whole seed form and to grind them just prior to use.
Indian spices offer significant health benefits and contribute towards an individual's healthy life. They add flavour and nutrients to dishes without fat or calories!
