When Do Spices Give Up The Ghost?


How long can bottled spices be kept; what is the shelf life? The good news is, spices typically do not spoil. The bad news is, they lose their strength. What is interesting is that a lot of cookbook writers tell you to purge your pantry once an herb or spice is about 6 months old. But most spice
companies are not so reckless. They tell you to keep and use the spices as long as they appear to have flavor—and they trust you to be able to tell! Stored in an airtight container, in a cool, dry place, spices retain their potency longer than you’d think — as long as 4 years for whole spices, 2 to 3 years for ground spices, and 1 to 3 years for leafy herbs, depending on the herb. Whole peppercorns, nutmegs and cinnamon sticks hold on to their flavor for ages. Particularly potent whole spices, such as cloves, cumin, and cardamom will also last for a long time. For ground spices, shake the jar, let it settle, and give a sniff. If there’s essentially no smell, it should be tossed out. If the spices have a bit of fragrance left but are not as potent as you remember or think they should be, just use more in the recipe. Then you’ll run out sooner and have a reason to start fresh with a new batch. Of paramount importance in getting the most flavor and value out of your herbs and spices is to store them well — nowhere near the heat of the stove, nowhere near the humidity of the stove or dishwasher, nowhere bright and sunny. But don’t get the idea that putting them in the freezer is ideal, either. Condensation will be a problem each time the bottle comes out of the freezer and is likely to introduce moisture in the
spices. Similarly, don’t ever shake herbs or spices out of the bottle directly into something you’re cooking — that’s the quickest way possible to steam and despoil your spices.

As Watkins associates, realize that most people have spices on their kitchen shelf that they’ve had for 5, sometimes 10 or more years. Compare the smell of a new Watkins spice to one that is years old. What a difference! Almost everyone needs a new set of spices. And guess what? We have the best!!

Natural and Organic Flavors

Staying Organic Is Spice Of Life For Watkins

Organic Spices GroupOften times, consumers may question what exactly is organic and how does it differ from natural? When referring to natural, or all natural, generally the product does not contain artificial or synthetic material and has sustained very minimal processing. Organic on the other hand signifies the way a product is actually grown and processed.

Organically grown products are farmed using only natural processing methods, free from pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers. For a product to be labeled organic, it must pass a certification process, with national standards set forth by The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Whether domestic or international, individual farms and manufacturing facilities are supervised by USDA agencies that carefully scrutinize each step before passing certification.

Trends in America today show the consumer’s demand for natural and organic products is on the rise. According to the Organic Trade Association, sales in the organic category will increase 18 percent annually through 2008. Mainstream supermarkets are expanding their natural and organic selections to include fruits, vegetables, meat, and poultry to accommodate this growing need.

It is clear consumers are looking for ways to introduce more natural, healthy and organic products into their lifestyles. Consumers take more time to educate themselves on what they put into their bodies. And as many are now looking to add organic foods to their daily meals, often times they find organics to be costlier than traditional foods. Watkins offers a full line of spices at every day prices. Giving the consumer the comfort of adding organics to their diet, without denting their pocket book.

Non-a Colada




This non-alcoholic version of the classic cabana drink is just as good as the original!

2 cups/500 mL ice
4 fl oz/120 mL pineapple juice
3 fl oz/90 mL cream of coconut
1 tsp/5 mL Watkins Rum Extract

Place all ingredients in blender;
blend until smooth. Serves 2.

Try This:
Add one of Watkins Fruit Extracts (Mango, Orange, Banana, etc.) to give a new twist to your coladas!

A Slippery Solution!




Did you know that a can of Watkins Cooking Spray in your cupboard has other uses you may have never considered? You can spray it on measuring spoons before measuring sticky foods like molasses and honey and they will easily slide off. You can also spray your knives before chopping dates or other dried fruits. Also, it can be sprayed on cheese graters to prevent the cheese from sticking.

Did you know this about Rosemary?

The name “rosemary” is derived from Latin, and means “dew of the sea”—appropriate because the herb thrives in the dry climate and salty sea spray of the Mediterranean shores. Its pungent minty/evergreen flavor is a favorite in Italy and Provence, especially with poultry and pork and in dishes simmered with wine, olive oil and garlic. Its high place in the world’s most romantic
cuisines is no surprise when one considers the effects of its essence on the human mind. Rosemary is beneficial for the mind and the body. It stimulates the heart and brain, helping to improve vitality and memory, and may help to fight afternoon fatigue. Rosemary is credited with arousing ambition and drive, balancing intense emotions and controlling mood swings, and
can also help to prevent some vasoconstrictor headaches because it can help keep blood vessels
dilated. It aids in digestion and contains a high amount of antioxidants which researchers believe
may help to slow the aging process...so, if you want to stay young and vibrant, eat rosemary and
other herbs and spices on a regular basis.

Why Watkins Grapeseed Oil?

Top chefs from around the world are now cooking with grapeseed oil because of its remarkable
effects on enhancing the natural flavors of food. Unlike olive oil, its light neutral flavor goes with
everything and won’t clash with certain foods. It not only makes foods taste great; it’s great for the heart—it’s one of the few foods known that not only reduces LDL, the bad cholesterol, but raises HDL, the good cholesterol! Watkins Grapeseed Oil is available in three gourmet flavors; Original, Garlic & Parsley and Citrus & Cilantro. You’ll also find it in our more concentrated seasoning oils: Garlic, Onion, and Chipotle Liquid Spices.

What is curry powder?

Curry powder is one of the world’s oldest spice blends. The version known to most Western cooks originated in England and was designed to approximate the characteristic flavor of Indian curry cookery, which became popular during the British colonization of India. There are many curry blends used in India (such as Madras), and most Indian cooks vary the blend according to each separate dish. Curry powder has grown to be used as a single spice in Western kitchens, and is also very popular in the Caribbean. Use curry powder generously in Indian and Caribbean curries, and sparingly in Western dishes such as deviled eggs, fish, shrimp, meats, vegetables, rice, French dressing, white sauce, fish chowders and soups.

Watkins Jalapeño Hot Pepper Sauce & Recipe

In recent years, salsa has eclipsed ketchup as the number-one selling condiment (by dollar volume) in North America…and hot sauces are available on supermarket shelves in a wider variety than ever before.

This traditional Mexican-style green table sauce is great in guacamole or chili, on fajitas and other Mexican dishes, or wherever you would use fresh jalapeños. We even bumped up the heat a bit to bring it into the range normally found in Louisiana-style red pepper sauces, making this
sauce a natural for Mexican or Cajun foods.

• All-natural/fat-free: No preservatives.
• Heat Level: Medium-hot.
• Uses: Use anywhere you would use fresh jalapeños…terrific on nachos, tacos, enchiladas, fajitas, Spanish rice, in guacamole, and in chili.

2-1/2 lbs/1.2 kg chicken drummies (meaty portion of wing)
Watkins Chicken Seasoning
1/2 cup/125 mL butter, melted
2 tbsp/30 mL Watkins Jalapeño Hot Pepper Sauce
1-1/2 tsp/7.5 mL fresh lime juice

Sprinkle wings generously with Chicken Seasoning. Place on grill or broil until done. Meanwhile,
combine butter, Jalapeño Hot Sauce, and lime juice. During last 10 minutes of cooking time, baste with 1/4 of the butter mixture. Remove from grill and place in bowl; toss with remaining
butter mixture. Keep warm in chafing dish or crockpot.


Watkins Baking Powder & Recipe

Baking Powder was introduced in the mid-1800s as a leavener, or rising agent, for baked goods. It was created by mixing bicarbonate of soda (baking soda, an alkaline) with a mild acid, such as tartaric acid (cream of tartar). This was “single-acting” baking powder and created a rising action through the release of gases produced by the interacting acid and alkaline substances. It was called “single acting” because the leavening gases were all released at one time—upon contact with the moisture in the batter. Today’s baking powder still contains baking soda as its alkaline ingredient, but uses a combination of acids, which creates a “double-acting”effect in
which leavening gases are released once on contact with moisture, and again during baking.This
“double-acting” baking powder is the only variety commercially available today. The acidifying ingredients used in today’s baking powders vary. Watkins Baking Powder is aluminum-free. Cornstarch is added as a moisture absorber to aid in storage.

When to use Baking Powder

Baking powder and baking soda are often confused…what’s the difference?
Baking soda is used for certain cookies and other items that should spread out, rather than rise. It will only cause baked goods to rise vertically when used with an acid like buttermilk, yogurt, or molasses. Baking powder already has an acid added to it, so baked goods will rise without additional leavening ingredients.

• For the highest meringue, add some baking powder to room-temperature egg whites before
beating them. As you beat the whites, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar for each egg
used, beating continuously.
• To help maintain freshness, turn the can upside down once a month. Each package
is freshness dated.
• To test the leavening ability of your Baking Powder, place 1/2 tsp in 1/4 cup of hot water.
If the powder is usable, the water will bubble actively.

Baking Powder Biscuits

2 cups/500 mL sifted all-purpose flour
1 tbsp/15 mL Watkins Baking Powder
1/2 tsp/2.5 mL salt
5 tbsp/75 mL vegetable shortening
3/4 cup/180 mL milk

Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Add shortening and cut into dry ingredients with two knives or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in center and gradually add milk, stirring until a soft dough forms. Turn out onto lightly floured board and knead lightly for 30 seconds. Roll out 1/2 to 3/4-inch/1 to 2-cm thick. Cut with a floured biscuit cutter. Arrange on greased baking sheet. Bake at 450°F/235°C for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Makes 12 biscuits.



Watkins Baking Cocoa & Recipe

The cocoa tree grows in the equatorial regions of Central and South America, Africa and India. After the cocoa beans are harvested, they are fermented to remove bitterness and develop flavor. They are then dried and roasted. Baking cocoa (cocoa powder) is unsweetened and less fatty than other forms of chocolate. It is produced by a cocoa press, which extracts the cocoa butter from the roasted beans. The resulting dry cakes of cocoa are then ground into powder.
Watkins is proud to offer this classic pure cocoa in our fine tradition of quality. Dark and full-flavored, our natural-processed baking cocoa is the best you could use for baking!

• Use whenever recipes call for cocoa; taste the difference!
• In recipes that call for unsweetened chocolate, simply substitute 3 tablespoons (45 mL) of Baking Cocoa plus 1 tablespoon (15 mL) unsalted butter for each 1 oz (30 g) of unsweetened chocolate.
• To substitute for one 6-oz (170 g) bag of semisweet chocolate morsels, substitute 6 tbsp (90 mL) Baking Cocoa, 7 tbsp (100 mL) granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup (60 mL) solid vegetable shortening.
• Unsweetened cocoa is a terrific addition to chili. This may seem strange, but chocolate actually
has a long tradition of similar use in Mexico.

Watkins Cocoa Brownies

1/2 cup/125 mL (1 stick) butter
1 cup/250 mL sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp/5 mL Watkins Original Double-Strength Vanilla
1/3 cup/80 mL Watkins Baking Cocoa

1/4 cup/60 mL Watkins Baking Cocoa
1 tbsp/15 mL light corn syrup or honey
1 tsp/5 mL Watkins Original Double-Strength Vanilla
1 cup/250 mL confectioner’s sugar


Preheat oven to 350°F/175°C. Spray (with Watkins Cooking Spray) and flour an 8-inch/20-cm square pan. In a large saucepan, melt the first stick of butter. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, eggs and 1 tsp vanilla. Beat in the 1/3 cup cocoa, flour, salt and baking powder. Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Do not over bake.
Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients to make frosting. Frost brownies while still warm.
