Spices are additives that help bring out the flavor of a dish.
Often the ingredients are suitable for use only in sweet dishes or only in regular everyday food.
Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, chef and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova will tell you about exceptions that can be applied in both cases.
What spices to add to sweet and salty dishes
Let's start with one of the most popular spices - black pepper. When added to meat dishes, it is intended to emphasize their taste and add spiciness to the product.
However, not everyone knows that black pepper is a great option for adding to coffee. It has the ability to better reveal the taste and aroma of this drink.
The same goes for cinnamon. We are used to adding it to baked goods, because this aromatic spice makes delicious buns.
However, a pinch of cinnamon is what will add a piquant flavor to red meat dishes, such as cutlets or chops.
Nutmeg has a menthol-clove flavor, and therefore is appropriate both in sweet fruits and in regular food. For example, if you add it to mashed potatoes, you can emphasize the creamy taste of the dish.
