Our Guide to the World of Spices

Herbs and Spices have been used to flavour foods for thousands of years. Primitive man used leaves to wrap their food while cooking, while the ancient Chinese, Egyptians and ancient Greeks also used various products to flavour foods and for medicinal purposes. During the Roman era, the trade of herbs and spices grew, and it was during this time that many of these products were introduced to Britain.
