6-letter Spices that contain I

List of 6-letter Spices that contain I

1

Ajwain

Trachyspermum ammi

Tiny ridged seeds with a powerful thyme-oregano punch — the digestive workhorse of Indian breads, lentils, and snack mixes.

2

Cassia

Cinnamomum cassia

The thicker, darker, bolder bark sold as "cinnamon" in most supermarkets — assertive enough to flavor American cinnamon rolls and Chinese braises.

3

Ginger

Zingiber officinale

The knobby rhizome of a tropical perennial — fresh, dried, or candied, it brings warmth and bright heat to countless cuisines.

4

Mastic

Pistacia lentiscus var. Chia

Aromatic resin "tears" wept by Greek pistachio relatives on the island of Chios — used in Greek ice cream, Turkish delight, and Lebanese pastries.

5

Wasabi

Eutrema japonicum

A Japanese mountain rhizome whose freshly grated paste delivers a fleeting nasal heat — and whose green tube imposters are almost always dyed horseradish.
