Spice rack that is...
I was complimented on my spice rack today and looking through the various things from your standard go to easy Mrs. Dash to home made Curry concoctions to even various Korean Style rubs..I realized since I've started eating better, expanding my food horizon, I've gained quite an extension spice collection.

What are your favorites? And are there any amazing mixes and marinades you've made yourself?

    I love LOVE dill seasoning. Poppy and fennel seeds are also favs of mine. I put poppy seeds to my salads to give it a little spice kick. Fennel, I do the same and it's great on homemade pizza.

    sage, thyme and rosemary for chicken breasts.makes plain chicken breasts pretty darn yummy.

    masala curry for just about anything. mixed veggies, omelettes, chicken breasts.

    green chilis topped on just about everything, too. i live in NM, which is the green chili capital of the world. there is even green chili honey here.

    Wow I need some of that. Wonder if I can get it in Australia. I have an amazing spice draw but then I use to cook for a living and have to try everything.

    I saw it on the board here and it was brown sugar, chili powder and cayenne. I use this for a rub on chicken, grill it and so good.

    I make my own lemon garlic marinade with crushed red pepper... fantastic on chicken and pork.
    I also make my own chili seasoning and taco seasoning.

    Yes! I planted an herb garden last weekend! I have always been a standard garlic, pepper, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme girl (And yes, every time, I sing that!)

    And now I use more curry, marjoram, chives, dill and chili pepper or cayenne.

    I also use more apple cider vinegar and orange juice for marinades/dressings

    I've been using the heck out of Trader Joe's South African Smoke. I've never gone through a spice as fast as I did that one.
