Yesterday I hung up a new spice rack I have built and I am wondering…how are people storing their spices and dried herbs? For the best longevity, you should store them in a cool, dark place. Storing them above the range top is NOT a good idea as heat speeds up oxidation and will eventually render your stores rancid. Glass is the best storage container, and if you must store in bulk, be sure to vacuum seal the jars if possible.
