About Ground spices

Ground spices are one or more spices milled into powder or small particles. The plural label identifies a category of ingredients, not the particular spices or their proportions. Such products are used to season, colour, or flavour foods; they may be single-item products grouped under a generic label or mixtures, depending on the product.

Appearance and flavour vary widely with the ingredients and grind, from fine powder to a coarser texture, and from mild or aromatic to pungent or hot. No specific recipe or spice combination is established by this name. Nutrition comparisons should match the actual ingredients and proportions, and account for whether the product includes any additional components.
