Overview Mint is one of the most valued and versatile herbs. Its sweet and strong aroma and flavour is the star in many sauces, desserts and spice rubs. It is one of the most popular herbal tea herbs, and its essential oils are highly valuable. Common Uses Spearmint is used in mint sauces that are available worldwide. Mint sauces accompany lamb dishes extremely well. Wines are also flavoured with mint specifically peppermint. Many desserts require peppermint to make them perfect.

Recommended Storage The most important point is that dried herbs and spices can never go bad if they are kept dry. Yes, the potency is lost, but it will still influence the flavor of your cooking. Seeds, roots, leaves and flowers last longer than crushed or ground herbs and spices. When you are preparing to store your dry herbs and spices it is vital that they are completely dry. A good indication is to rub it with your finger to check if it crumbles. As oxygen degrades dried herbs and spices over time, you should store them in airtight containers. Glass jars with sealable lids are perfect, and so are metal tins. Plastic won't do for long terms storage. Sunlight also degrades dried herbs and spices; therefore, it should be stored in a dark cabinet that is both cool and dry. If your spice rack is near the stove or cooker, steam will degrade your herbs and spices each time you open the container while cooking. When buying in bulk, you should always store only some of the dried herbs and spices in a glass or metal container. Each time you open it, it is exposed to the elements. When buying in bulk it is useful to label your containers with the purchase date and discard date.
