Where is Cinnamon? Where is Cinnamon? Here I am. One of the easiest ways to speed up your time in the kitchen is streamlining your items to quickly find the ingredients you need.
Spices and herbs are often in a jumble even when you have them in a rack on a pantry door. I simply write on the top of the lid (I use a liquid white-out pen - easy to scratch off if you change your mind ) so when I look down on the multiple bottles I can quickly locate the one I need. I have one small shelf for herbs and one for spices. Because I have a steady turnover of my most-used spices, I refill a number of bottles from large packets I purchase at either a continental deli or Indian spice shop, so they are always on hand to replace an empty jar. My spice bottles are re-used over and over.
A few spices bottles are on a top rack on the pantry door - I name these spices on the base of the container so when I glance up I can easily see which is which.
I hope this gives you some ideas to make your cooking easy and enjoyable!
Cheers! Colleen
