I made my husbands favourite dish for supper last night (Beef Stifado) who said that the way to a mans heart isn't through his stomach?
The dish calls for quite a few different herbs and spices and whilst I had everything on hand (except the fresh ingredients of course) I wondered if dried herbs and spices have a shelf life and whether the flavours diminish after time? Do I need to invest in a new spice box or will the (out of date) jars I have still be okay?
