Spicing Up Your Food Storage
Josephine Newton, "Spicing Up Your Food Storage," Ensign, June 1990, 72
"Spicing it up" is important, especially when you’’re cooking with basic food storage items. So once you acquire grains, legumes, nonfat dry milk, sugar, oil, and salt, start gathering a year’’s supply of spices and flavorings.
Beef, chicken, or ham bouillon granules or cubes are excellent secondary storage items. Rice takes on wonderful new flavors when cooked in bouillon, as does barley and even some wheat dishes. Bouillon is also a base for many soups, sauces, and casseroles.
Soy sauce is another excellent flavoring to store. It adds saltiness to stir-fry vegetables and fried rice, as well as to some stews, chicken, and fish. Other flavor enhancers for main dishes include red and black pepper, paprika, turmeric, vinegar, dry or prepared mustard, Tabasco sauce and Worcestershire sauce.
Aromatic herbs like marjoram, thyme, oregano, dill, basil, and sage can lift soups, casseroles, salads, and sauces out of the ordinary. Seasoning salts and spice blends like chili powder, curry powder, poultry seasoning, and celery, garlic, and onion salts make legumes tastier.
The aromatic seeds——anise, caraway, celery, coriander, cumin, dill, fennel, poppy, and sesame seeds——are especially good sprinkled over home-baked breads and rolls and stirred into salad dressings.
While you probably have some "sweet" spices on hand——cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, allspice, and mace——you may want to store a wider variety. Although "sweet" spices are not actually sweet, because of their flavor association with sweet dishes, they give a sweetening effect to breads, puddings, and cereals, even when no sugar is added. Simple rice pudding, for example, is dependent on such spices for its flavor. And you can enhance the simplest cookies and cakes with these favorite flavors. Vanilla, almond, lemon, and maple extracts are also good for storing.
To supplement nonfat dry milk, store cocoa, sweet cocoa mix, or a cereal drink. Punch powder flavors not only water, but also puddings and pie fillings.
Note: For long-term storage, keep unopened boxes, cans, or jars of spices and herbs in a closed plastic container or bag and store in a cool, dry, dark place. Once spices are opened, keep them sealed in a second container to maintain their flavor and aroma.——Josephine Newton, West Jordan, Utah
David B. Haight said:
They wrapped Jesus’ body in fine linen, together with spices, according to the Jewish custom of preparing a body for burial. Later, women carrying spices for the final preparation of the body for burial looked in the tomb and witnessed angels, who said, "Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified.
"All Wholesome Herbs"
"And again, verily I say unto you, all wholesome herbs God hath ordained for the constitution, nature, and use of man--"Every herb in the season thereof, and every fruit in the season thereof; all these to be used with prudence and thanksgiving." D&C 89:10––11. What are herbs? A definition current in Joseph Smith’s day was "plants of which the leaves or stem and leaves, are used for food or medicine, or in some way for their scent or flavor."Yea, all things which come of the earth, in the season thereof, are made for the benefit and the use of man, both to please the eye and to gladden the heart; "Yea, for food and for raiment, for taste and for smell, to strengthen the body and to enliven the soul." D&C 59:18-19

This recipe is every bit as good as real eggs in your favorite baked good recipes. For each egg, place in blender:
1 Heaping tablespoon of whole organic Flax Seed, blend it until it becomes a fine meal. Add a 1/4 cup of cold water blend 2-3 minutes until thickened and has the consistency of eggs.
Each 1/4 cup of flax seed mixture equals one egg.
