Science in the Kitchen-April 2022 : Gift of the Mysterious World: Spices

Abstract

My dear readers, have you ever heard of a country called Spice? If not, let me tell you: yes, the official name of that country is Bharat. Indians in India do not call their country India. In their language, their country is called Bharat. Delving into history, we find that spices were among the most valuable trade goods, originating from this region. We have called these mysterious sources of flavor, which release their heavenly scents, "spices," often referencing the country of their origin.
