Spices keep their flavor better when they’re somewhere dry and dark
Have you ever seen wet spices? The chances are that the answer is no. Spices are created using a form of dehydration, which makes them as dry as possible. This way, their flavor will be enhanced when you add them to your dishes, and they can also be stored pretty easily at home without any extra work needed.
Adding moisture to your spices will not help in any way when you’re not using them, so try to avoid keeping them in your refrigerator at all costs. They will last for years in your cupboards, but try to keep this storage area as dry and as dark as possible to keep as much flavor locked in as you can.
