Toast Whole Spices Before Grinding Them Toasting can really bring out a new layer of flavors in spices. Cumin, coriander, cinnamon, and most other “warm” spices can really benefit from good toasting before you grind or crush them, especially if using them in an application like soup or a puree, where they won’t be roasted with the dish. It’s super easy, and really ups the flavor, you just need to throw your spices in a dry pan (no oil) and heat over a high flame. Shake the pan every now and then to avoid burning. For a light toast, remove the pan from the heat as soon as you smell the spice fragrance wafting through the air, and immediately pour the spices onto a cool, flat surface. If you want to add a little smokiness and deeper flavor, keep the seeds in a pan over the heat until they darken in color and the fragrance becomes a little heavier. Then immediately remove to a cool, flat surface. Spices play a significant role in the way we cook and consume food around the world.
