Only 25 spices?

Posted by Peasantwench, November 11, 2008

I just moved from a large house with a huge kitchen to a small apartment, which a small kitchen. In the house, I had about 80 jars of spices, which the ex got, along with the house. I know there's no way I can have that many spices in the new kitchen, and figure I have to limit it to about 25. I just don't know which ones!

I cook Indian fairly often, so cumin, coriander, garam marsala, et cetera are required. I bake enough that I'll need powdered ginger and cinnamon. I know you can't go with out basil and oregano and such, but I'm having a lot of trouble narrowing it down.

What spices do you think are absolutely required?
