So, what are the best spice bags for cooking? While there are many options out there to choose from, you always have to choose a material that is completely food safe. This includes muslin, cheesecloth, or wood pulp bags.

What a waste of time! Strain the cooking liquor off the cooked pork and reserve it. Put the cooked pork meat into a dish or tray. Reduce the cooking liquor over a high heat until it forms a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the meat, place to one side. Put the meat and the marinade in a pot and add water to cover. Place on a hob over a high heat and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer, then add the star anise and cinnamon and the ginger and garlic. (Put the ginger and garlic in a plastic bag and smash them gently with a rolling pin before adding to the pot, as this will release more flavour than chopping.) I tried this recipe exactly as written the first time and it came close but I tweaked it as per the below and now I think it’s perfect. I more or less tripled the mix to have some spare and adjusted a few more things – here’s what I think tastes most authentic:

If you don’t have or want to use buttermilk, you can substitute regular milk in the marinade. Maybe throw a 1/2 tsp of white vinegar in with it.

But, Kingleder has also released some other bigger and smaller spice bags to suit your specific needs. Using parsley: You might only want to use the parsley stems for the sachet since parsley leaves could turn the liquid that you are flavoring to be an unappealing shade of green.Naturally, choosing a spice bag that will be able to hold all of the spices you need is essential. It isn’t optimal to add multiple spice bags to the dish. It wastes bags and time. Yes, folks, you can get great quality at a reasonable price. And, they will last you a long time if well taken care of. 2.

I seek forgiveness from the Irish if I’ve really messed it up. Feel free to set me straight :)

So, we have compiled a list of the things you should look out for before buying a spice bag. 1. Material

This was always our biggest pain. A ton of spice bags aren’t designed with a proper closing mechanism. The string either tears out or is completely detached from the get-go. While spice bags are generally very affordable, you still want one that is high in quality and that won’t just break after one use. There may be some other materials out there to choose from. However, we recommend only the three mentioned above. They are all proven to work and are completely safe to add to your food.You can avoid this frustration by using a spice sachet (or sachet d’épices in French), which is a little bag that stores your herbs and spices.
