For smaller quantities, I use ziploc bags. I picked up a nifty antique post office cabinet at Kitchenalia about five years ago with lots and lots of little drawers, and keep a small (snack size) ziploc bag of each herb or spice in it--all labelled and in alphabetical order for easy retrieval. I refill from my jarred spices as necessary.</p><p>About the only thing I use those crummy conventional spice jars for now is storing needles, tacks, garden seeds, etc. :o)</p>liss76Thu, 08 Mar 2007 07:30:15 -0000http://www.dria.org/wordpress/archives/2007/03/02/513/#comment-1567806<p>they look pretty too</p>LilandraSat, 03 Mar 2007 01:17:11 -0000http://www.dria.org/wordpress/archives/2007/03/02/513/#comment-1567804<p>I would use metal tins from the hardware store. Also, you can attach the tins to the back of a cabinet door (which is a convenient place) with velcro strip: attach a strip of loops to the back of a cabinet door and velcro hooks to the back of your jar. (Which I originally learned from Alton Brown.)</p>Benjamin SmedbergFri, 02 Mar 2007 09:25:13 -0000
