Top 15 Seasoning you should have in your kitchen 2025

Seasoning means to bring out or intensify the natural flavour of the food without changing it. Seasonings are usually added near the end of the cooking period. The most common seasonings are salt, pepper, and acids (such as lemon juice). When seasonings are used properly, they cannot be tasted; their job is to heighten the flavours of the original ingredients. From all purpose seasonings, to basic seasonings, these are the flavorful ingredients you should keep stocked in your pantry at all times.
