Looking to add pizzazz to your meals? Consider tantalizing spices from locales around the world, like Africa, Asia and the Middle East. Some spices from these regions may already be familiar to you—such as cumin, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and bay leaves. But others can provide an array of new tastes that are sure to spice up any meal.
These international spices and spice blends can spark some creative inspiration in the kitchen. As an added bonus, using these spices means you can skip the salt, which is good for you blood pressure and heart. In addition, many can enhance digestion and/or contain antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties to deliver extra health benefits.
