Black mustard seeds are the small, dark seeds of the black mustard plant. They are the hottest and most pungent of all mustard varieties. Their flavor is bold, spicy, and with a distinct, sharp heat that only develops when crushed or cracked by heating. They are an essential part of Indian cuisine, particularly in South India, where they are fried as one of the first ingredients in hot oil or ghee. This frying, known as tadka, causes them to burst and release their nutty, pungent aroma. Black mustard seeds are delicious in curries, dal (lentil dishes), vegetable dishes, and pickles, adding a unique, spicy flavor and texture.

Star anise powder is the finely ground spice from the fruit of the star anise tree. It offers the same strong, licorice-like aroma as whole stars, but in a highly concentrated and readily available form. The powder is more intense because its essential oils are fully released and often has a pepperier note. Unlike whole stars, which release their aroma slowly, the powder provides a quick and even seasoning. It is an essential ingredient in Chinese five-spice powder and is often used in Asian cuisine for marinades, spice pastes, and rubs for meats such as duck and pork. Due to its intense spiciness, star anise powder should be used very sparingly, as it can quickly overpower other flavors. It is also excellent for adding an exotic aroma to baked goods, compotes, or mulled wine.

Ground cassia cinnamon is the most common form of cinnamon and is obtained from the dried bark of the cassia tree. Its flavor is bold, spicy, and intense, with a peppery sweetness. Unlike its more elegant relative, Ceylon cinnamon, the aroma of cassia cinnamon is less subtle, yet very dominant and distinctive. The powder is ideal for quickly and evenly flavoring dishes. It is an essential spice in the bakery, enhancing cakes, cinnamon rolls, cookies, and desserts. It is also used in savory dishes, for example, in braised dishes, curries, and marinades. Due to its strong spiciness, cinnamon powder should be used sparingly. Please note that cassia cinnamon has a higher coumarin content than Ceylon cinnamon.

Cardamom pods, also known as capsules, are the dried, spindle-shaped pods of the cardamom plant. They are the heart of the spice, as they contain the aromatic, black seeds that carry the true flavor. There are two main varieties: green cardamom, with its sweet, floral, and citrusy aroma, and black cardamom, which is larger and has a bold, smoky, and slightly camphoraceous flavor. Whole cardamom pods are used to slowly and subtly release their complex aroma into dishes. They are often cooked in soups, braised dishes, or rice dishes (such as biryani) and removed before serving, as the pod is inedible. In Indian and Middle Eastern cuisine, cardamom pods are essential for curries, spice blends, and the famous masala chai. In Scandinavian baking, they are used in bread and pastries. The advantage of the whole pod is that the seeds are optimally protected in the pod, thus retaining their flavor for a long time. The capsules should only be lightly tapped shortly before use to release the seeds and develop their full aroma.

Pink peppercorn is a visually appealing spice distinguished from conventional peppercorns by its bright pink color and unique aroma. Botanically speaking, it is not a "true" peppercorn, but rather the dried berry of the Peruvian peppercorn tree. Its flavor is extremely delicate: mild, fruity, and slightly sweet, with a subtle spiciness and hints of juniper and pine. Due to its delicate aroma, it is rarely used in cooking but is usually used as a garnish and finisher, ground fresh or sprinkled whole over a dish. Pink peppercorn pairs perfectly with fish, seafood, poultry, and salads. Due to its sweet notes, it also makes a surprising ingredient in desserts such as chocolate mousse or fruit salads.
