The secret of the delicious flavour of Indian food is its rich spices that are used for thousands of years and spreading all over the world. The environment of India is perfect; heavy humidity, high rainfall, dry and hot weather favours the conditions for growth of different spices. In a country like India, people grind the spices in mortar and pastel that gives unique tang to food. Grinded spices have more taste as compared to machinery grinded spices. Apart from above functions, spice also prevents rotting of food. They slow down the growth of bacteria and aids in preservation. There are many places in India where people still preserve their food through this technique due to unavailability of electricity.
