Did you know that India is called the Land of Spices? This is because of the different spices used in our cooking as well as the variety that the country produces. In fact, over 70% of the world’s spices come from India!
Pepper has to be our most famous export. So famous that foreigners – from the Ancient Romans in 30 BC to the Portuguese in the 15th century – were lured to the continent by this precious spice.
Interestingly though, not all spices originated from India. Play this memory game by identifying the spice. Once you match the image with its name, information about its origin will pop up!
