Do you know how I know that your turmeric is old?

because almost everything is improved by the addition of some quantity of black pepper

Dude, how poor are you?

Garlic and onion powder.

I have never seen either of these in Europe. It seems to be an American thing, and is the spice used by Guy Fieri bro chefs who make 'gourmet nachos' and 'artisan bacon cheeseburgers'

>>6058222
Fuckin righteous

>>6058218
Nigga I'm really poor and my life is in shambles tbh

>>6058222
I have seen those plentiful in german grocery stores.
They aren't used in most recipes tradionally though but heavily in industrial products.

I use garlic power mostly when I am too lazy to crush garlic while cooking only for myself.

>>6058124
>Licorice/anise/fennel
>>Bin 'em

this thread is for over-rated spices, not under-rated. kinda bad taste to kick something when it's already down, huh?

>>6058124
Turmeri is supposed to have an almost-overpowering sour/metallic/woody flavor. Anise and fennel fucking own in sausages and rice. Git gud.

>>6058124
> black pepper
I wholeheartedly agree. My previous chef tried to tell me black pepper = flavor, like that shit is necessary for everything. Salt, yes, but not black pepper.

> pumpkin spice
This shit makes me rage every time. I'm not even sure why. It just bothers me when, at this time of year, everyone wants to slap "pumpkin spice" on everything knowing damn well their clientele doesn't really know what that is.

I think cumin is underrated.

>>6058222
Can Euro's go one post without shitting on America?

>>6058222
You need to open your eyes then, they're in most supermarkets.

>>6058804

It makes us feel better about our oppressive governments and shitty economies.

Lel meme spice xD

Cilantro is another contender

>>6058807
I read your post out of context and first thought you were talking about America.

>>6058105
Salt in general is overrated

>>6059418
no, it isnt.
try to not salt your meals for a week.

also: OPs premise is set up for a meme thread
>i dont like things
its ok, nobody cares

>>6059431
I don't salt my meals though,I don't even have any salt in my pantry
Plenty of other spices though

>>6059431
Yes it is. And it is unnecessary to add it, as most of the foods you can buy already have a lot of salt.

>>6059416
Edgy as fuck brah

I'm currently cooking some pulled pork and have 3 tupperware containers full off homemade stuff,none of them needing extra salt

>>6059730
Clove cigarettes?

>>6058105

I'd say safron. Pretty overrated.

Its a nice exotic thing, but not worth the price IMO.

Also, truffles dont really do anything for me. Earthy musty, sure.. But just not really worth it either.

>>6059730

Coriander is such a nice herb..

Cant do asian or mexican cooking without it.

But some people react to one of the compounds, which make it taste soapy for those people.

>>6059880
Yeah, it's the same problem with cilantro.

I think it's actually been traced down to a single gene that determines "Do cilantro and coriander taste like soap to you y/n?"

>>6059941
Hopefully, modern gene therapy will one day be able to cure those sad, crippled souls who cannot enjoy the delicious fresh flavor of cilantro.

>>6059943
>modern gene therapy will one day be able to
Don't you mean future gene therapy?

>>6059941
I like coriander but i don't like cilantro it doesn't taste like soap to me though i just don't like the flavor

>>6059841
/r/-ing someone do this webm for /ck/

>>6059966

>I like coriander
>but not cilantro

what the fuck how hipster can you get
they're literally the same plant

>>6061960

Yeah they're the same plant, but generally "cilantro" refers to the fresh leaves while coriander refers to the dried seeds. They are quite different.

>>6061960
Are you a literal retard?

>>6061921

>>6058125

>>6058124
This is bait, right? I stopped reading at Turmeric but I'm pretty certain this is bait.

>>6058222
I have seen garlic powder, but not onion powder. Onion powder was included in some "aromatic salt"-thing a cousin of mine had though. Finland here.

>>6059730
Underrated post.

>>6062092
>Siracha
>Spice
Yeah, /ck/ is far gone now.

>>6062127
>Yeah, /ck/ is far gone now.

>>6059941
>Yeah, it's the same problem with cilantro.

Because coriander is cilantro.

>>6062253
Yes but one is the leaves and one is the seed they taste different unlike celery where the seeds taste similar to the plant

Sea salt.

Don't get me wrong, it's not bad. But it's not great. I like my fucking basic ass iodized salt

> garlic powder
> onion powder
How hard is it to have fresh onions and fresh garlic around, chop em up, and add em to whatever you're cooking? HOW HARD IS THIS?
> popcorn
Conceded but it's still stupid.

Fucking olive oil.

>>6062092
>>6062863
Sriracha und Olive Oil are spices now

/ck/ really has lost ist

>>6058124
>Turmeric
>For when you're out of saffron, but your guests don't need to know that

>>6062880
They both are extremely overrated doe.

coriander.just me, but tastes well, like dish water. Star anice. another no go. a bit of licqorice is ok.I just don't like sweet (cloves) cloying (Iintense roses) vaporous..I donno . an old gay guy. shouldn't say anything. I think you might be ok though, Get you mom. aunts, sisters something light. 'cause you must maintain. even though...stop that. be nice or be gone.

>>6058124

I'LL FUKKEN FIGHT YOU MATE.

>>6059880
Ugh I wish I didn't have this, coriander smells so good but just tastes so bad.

>>6062944
But they aren't spices

>>6062883
this is apt.

>>6058172
Get the fuck outta here nigger.

>>6058113

i use tons of fresh parsley in my cornbread stuffing. i think it cut throughs the richness of the butter and chicken stock, balancing the flavor out.

it just adds this freshness/brightness to food. it's similar to cilantro in that respect.

>>6058172
>rosemary

Second best spice in the world, behind black pepper. Fuck yourself.

>bread
>potatoes
>meat
>soup
>desserts
>tea
>everything is better with rosemary

>>6058222

I use garlic powder so I don't have to mince garlic. I hate having my hands smell like garlic even after ten washings. Powder = problem solved.

>>6059405

I just bought some fresh, living cilantro for the windowsil. Minty fresh, bright taste that can only be appreciated by people with literally superior genetics.

>>6062092

Paprika is god tier. But lemon pepper, yeah, toss that shit in the bin.

>>6058105
paprika is the only correct answe rif yiu live in germany. but then again germans believe in putting curry powder on a sausage in a ketchup bath without heating the curry up first.

>>6062092
Cayenne and paprika are good. Lemon pepper is good on fish and chicken.

>>6062127

Onion powder is common in Finland, even though using actual onion is more so.
