Redoing My Spices

Redoing My Spices


Today is an exciting day! Hands down, my favorite ingredients in my kitchen are my spices. Whether I am mixing them together in a spice rub for fish tacos or frying them in some ghee for an Indian curry, I love cooking with spices.
Spices are used all around the world to add flavor and aroma to our favorite dishes.  Up until now, at my house, we had a big collection of spices, but to be honest it was kind of a mess.  It was always hard to find the spice we needed and very often we ended up with doubles of things, not realizing we own that spice already.  That ends Today! 


Today I am thrilled to be partnering with SpicesForLess.com to redo my spice cabinet! SpicesForLess.com is my new favorite site to buy spices online.  One of the things that are great about SpicesForLess is their huge selection of spices and various salts for purchase.  If it exists, then they sell it.! They even have things that I bet you didn’t even know existed, like ground lemongrass. Who knew that was a thing? Another thing that is great is you can buy them in so many different quantities, as small as 2 ounces or even as large as 50 pounds! Plus since it as online you have the convenience of it being shipped straight to your home rather than schlepping to the store. 
Now let’s talk about why you should redo your spices. First off, spices don’t have a forever shelf-life and after a while go bad. It is recommended to replace whole spices every 4 years, ground spices every 2-3 years, and leafy herbs every 1-3 years. If you look through your spice cabinet, chances are there are some that are way past expired. Additionally, when you redo all of your spices and put them in the same type of container, as opposed to all different sized ones that they typically come in when you buy them at the supermarket, it keeps them more organized. When they are more organized you can find them easier and then ultimately you can cook even faster! 

Once you have ordered all your spices from SpicesForLess.com, its time to find containers to put them in. What I used were a bunch of 16 oz mason jars. I went with mason jars because I really like the artisan look that they have. The spices can also be stored in the original bags or any other storage containers you would l like.
Aside from just the artisan look what is great about mason jars is that the spices inside are totally visible so you can easily identify them. Additionally, the jars come in all different sizes which is perfect because you can buy whichever size makes sense for the amount of each spice you order. If you don’t typically cook with lots of spices you can get a smaller quantity of each of the spices and hence smaller mason jars. However, if you are like me and use your spices on a daily basis, I would suggest going with the 16-ounce size. 

If you want to redo your spice cabinet or even just to buy a few new ones, then head over to SpicesForLess.com! 


Below is a complete list of the spices I got from Spices for Less. I look forward to ordering more and growing my collection with their help!

Instagram post 2191609429068988343_258777401 Today, I'm finally ready to share something with you guys I have been going through because I think it may be able to help some of you going through something similar. A few months ago, I realized I was becoming a person I wouldn't want to be friends with. At the time, I had just received a barrage of bad news about my career, and it felt like everything was going downhill. Because of how passionate and invested I am in my career, I let it get to me and change my overall personality and who I was off-camera. Many days I would sulk in my room at night about my situation, then force on a smile and muster up excitement for that day's Instagram stories. Most of the time, I was sad for myself, and that was apparent in how I talked with my friends and family; I was always complaining.

Eventually, I realized what I was becoming. I knew it was time to step back and figure things out to fix my mentality. I did some soul searching to find my true priorities and changed my perspective on life and my career. Many of the things that once seemed the end of the world to me were insignificant, once my perspective shifted. I had newly refined goals and knew what I wanted to be creating. I began regaining my hustle that I'd lost a few months prior.

Now I am proud to say that I am as motivated as ever, and business is booming! I have a clear vision of my priorities, and with my new perspective have reduced the stress I put on myself about my career. Although I am the same Eitan on and off camera, I'm able now to separate the success of "Chef Eitan" from the happiness of myself in my daily life. It was not always that way, and numbers can get to your head, so making that distinction, I have found, is very important to staying sane. I have made friends time a bigger priority. I now say no to things that are not working towards my goals to have more time to spend with friends and family.  I'm working on some incredibly cool projects for 2020 and have been getting more amazing opportunities than I can even handle at once. I'm overall happier and consider myself a more enjoyable person to be around... (continued in comments)
