It is a great idea to have a list of herbs and spices in your kitchen. I tape a handy reference inside a cupboard. It gives me that inspiration to try new herbs and spices to dishes. It also helps to cut back on fat, sugar and other not-so-good additives to your meals by using herbs to flavor your meals instead.
