Hey there, fellow food adventurer! 🌿🍽️ Ready to take your kitchen skills up a notch and make your dishes dance with flavor?
Here's the scoop on how to use spices and herbs to add that fancy touch to your cooking:
1. Herbs are leaves that are used fresh in cooking. They usually have a very distinct flavor and aroma, so it's easy to tell when you've added too much. Some common herbs include rosemary, thyme, basil, oregano, parsley, cilantro, mint and dill.
2. Spices are dried seeds or fruits that have been ground into powder or paste form. Spices are best when they're whole or freshly ground—the flavor degrades over time as they age. Some common spices include cinnamon sticks; cloves; nutmeg; paprika.
3. Herbs and spices can be used interchangeably in most recipes—they will taste different than if you'd used them alone but they'll still add plenty of flavor! Happy cooking!

Shout out to @green_org_ for this information! Climate change and pollution are severely impacting the oceans, and if we don't do something about it, we could lose some of the most amazing creatures ever to swim in its waters.
But there is hope! Some awesome companies are working on technology that helps us see a brighter future for our oceans. Like Coral Reef Restoration and Ocean Clean-Up Initiatives! Here are just a few examples we found from @green_org_.
