    What i didn't know about spices

    9 augusti 2017, Tanzania ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    Apparently I didn't know very much about many common spices and really enjoyed the tour of the local spice farm this morning. I didn't know both vanilla and pepper plants are vines, that the mace around a nutmeg is a beautiful bright red colour, and that there are two types of cardamom- one that grows along the forest floor and one that grows upwards.
    Whilst we wandered around with our guide his apprentice made us beautiful weaved hats, necklaces and bracelets from coconut leaves.
    We were worried TSA would not be happy about us bringing back spices so we declined however we did buy a couple of bars of turmeric and vanilla soap.

    Resenärnutmeg with mace around it. so beautiful from the treeNo idea nutmeg looked like that straight from the tree, no wonder people fought to get it 100's of years ago
