Spices are any dried part of a plant, other than the leaves, that is used to flavor and season recipes. They are usually not the main ingredient of a recipe, but rather add a unique flavor to it.

Some examples of spices include cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, peppercorns, turmeric, ginger, nutmeg, saffron, vanilla, cumin, dill seed and many more.
