This is a wonderful collection of projects for the home, all made with spices. From simple placemats made with cinnamon sticks to a stylish cardamom-filled cushion, there are plenty of innovative ideas. Also included is a delicious array of spicy food gifts, such as hot spiced drinks, spiced oils and vinegars and spicy gingerbread truffles. There is a comprehensive guide to the most popular spices and their culinary and medicinal properties, and the author also recounts the fascinating history of the old spice trails, explains how spices are grown, harvested and dried; and details uses in alternative medicine. A catalogue of spices includes a brief summary of the world's most popular spices, listing their properties, culinary and decorative uses. Spicecrafts is both a wonderful craft book and a useful reference guide to today's popular spices.
