This giveaway is now closed.
As I mentioned last week on my Cooking Planit Spices Giveaway Teaser Post you have the chance to win this awesome set of spices worth $100 from Cooking Planit! Spices are a fun way to play around with flavors plus they add nutrition to your recipes. Sneaky devils! A little cardamom on your oatmeal? Taste like fall. Smoked paprika in your chili? Won’t even miss the bacon. Cumin in your hummus? You can thank me later.
Cooking Planit is a cool recipe app and site that gives you EVERYTHING you need to be successful at making their recipes. They pair the main dish with the sides for you, plus tell you exactly what tools in the kitchen are essential, from the size pan to when you should use a spatula versus a spoon for mixing. Plus, every recipe has been tested. Details, people, details!

I love zaatar because it reminds me of israel and it tastes great on everything
I would have to say my favorite spice is Cumin, from indian to mexican it really does bring out the exotic flavors of any dish.
Too hard to decide on a single spice because it depends on the type of cooking I am doing and the particular dish. I can’t imagine Italian cooking without garlic; I use zaatar as a great flavor enhancer on fish, and love curry on vegetables and Indian food. If I want to be healthy, I think tumeric.
I love rosemary. It’s good on so many things and I can grow it on my little NYC terrace!

Garlic is my fav. Reminds me of my bubbe’s cooking!
I just pinned on Pinterest and Cooking Planit
Freshly cracked black pepper is easily my favorite spice, but if I had to pick a favorite pantry spice I would say smoked paprika is my favorite. It brings so much flavor to the party! Perfect for hummus. 🙂
I love chili powder for the flavor and color! I liked both sites on FB, signed up for emails on Amy’s site for the matzo phone cover, and did stable on this contest. I would love to win these because I am a white belt when it comes to really utilizing spices. Thanks for the contests!!
I love garlic because I can put it in almost everything.
I love so many spices, but if I had to choose just one (salt and pepper don’t count, and let’s call garlic a vegetable) I’d have to choose chile powder. Spicy, smokey, and flavorful.

my favorite spice is paprika- Both my parents are Hungarian so I grew up not only using paprika the way Americans use salt but we also always had a supply of fresh paprika from Hungary. The red color is so vibrant and the flavor of authentic Hungarian paprika is so potent. In my house we take our paprika very seriously!
I love garlic powder!
I love garlic. that’s essential. But lately I’ve been getting into fresh nutmeg. A teeny bit in the right dish really works!
I love garlic in soups, sauces and in just about everything.

Ginger root powder. I use it in homemade treats for my pregnant friends and friends going through chemo. It’s great for nausea

[…] y’all! Thanks to everyone who entered the Cooking Planit Spices Giveaway! It was really fun reading what spices y’all love to use. I guess I’m easily entertained. […]
Cumin tastes like my childhood! My dad put it on nachos with his home-canned, spicy-sweet peppers and extra sharp cheddar, in hummus for a little kick , and it even showed up in my mom’s savory quiches with sausage and mushrooms. Love it 🙂
