A spice market in Istanbul
This is a list of culinary herbs and spices. Specifically these are food or drink additives of mostly botanical origin used in nutritionally insignificant quantities for flavoring or coloring.
This list does not contain salt, which is a mineral. Nor is it for fictional plants such as aglaophotis, or recreational drugs such as tobacco.
And this list is not for plants used primarily as herb teas or tisanes, and not for herbs or spices that are purely medicinal such as valerian. For medicinal herbs see list of medicinal herbs.
See the list of spice mixtures below for common spice blends.
