Spices are aromatic flavorings that enhance the taste of dishes and mainly come from seeds, fruits, roots, stems, and flowers. Red pepper, black pepper, mustard seed, garlic, cardamom, turmeric, cinnamon, and cumin: There are myriad seasonings used in different regions and each type has a unique flavor. Mainly developed in India, Indonesia, and parts of the Middle East and North Africa, spices were once a precious luxury to Europeans starting in the Middle Ages?a turning point that changed international trade forever and even shaped nations and national identities.
