Sorry, I’ll try to tone the Asian down ^_^

Seriously though, Turmeric is pretty high on my list of spices, along with just about everything you listed.

You use it to make things like dressings and for sushi rice and stuff like that. It’s similar to white wine vinegar but has a different taste that blends well with soy sauce and makes for good pickles, etc.

i use a ton of the stuff you listed, but i also like to throw in other spices like:

- chili powder
- cumin
- nutmeg
- turmeric
- cinnamon
- saffron
- oregano
- basil
- parsley

not only do spices make your food taste way better, but many of them have anti-microbial effects, are high in anti-oxidants or do things like help imrpove circulation, insulin resistance and blood pressure.
