Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

That's a decent selection, but I would miss the pepper and coriander.
Ha, that's what I'm trying to avoid. It's easy to just buy all the spices, but I'm trying to limit it to the ones I actually use. For coriander, I just use fresh cilantro / coriander. I very rarely use coriander powder. Pepper, obviously, but that doesn't live in the spice drawer.
From your setup, "Dill Weed"? Do you ever use that? Dry parsley? Dry chives? Pumpkin Pie Spice? I don't think I've ever used any of those. Also, you have celery salt, kosher(ing) salt, truffle salt and salt substitute. Do you really use all of them?
I do have to say, your setup is great. Everything in the same kind of bottle, everything labelled well (even the 3 special ones), and all alphabetically sorted. I bet your kitchen is a great place to cook.
Dill weed is great for making lemon dill roasted potatoes. They go great with spanakopita.
Dry chives I put in last weeks mashed potatoes, and dried parsley in a stew ( I like fresh but it is good as a backup).
The pumpkin pie spice is actually an imported Indian finishing spice my Indian coworker brought over for me. You put a pinch of it into the dish of say curry/lentils right at serving. I put it as Pumpkin Pie spice because it seems to be a mix of cloves, nutmeg, Cinnamon and a few other things. It reminded me of Pumpkin Pie spices enough that I skip the regular pie recipe and just put a few spoons of that into the pumpkin filling. People love it.
Celery salt, because as a vegan to get a chicken/turkey type broth soup celery and sage can trick your taste buds into tasting chicken like.
Kosher Salt is for my homemade bread, it is super course and it does a better job of letting the yeast rise (while still controlling it).
Salt Substitute is actually Black Salt (already had the label stuck on the jar). Its a sulfer like mineral salt made by burning something. Since we are vegan if you want anything to smell and taste eggy, like an eggless salad, this does exactly that. But also adds good flavour in recipes.
Truffle Salt-- hard to source here so still empty right now.
