Don't disparage and attack our greatest spice, pumpkin spice

I think there are a lot of people who cook fish that I don't think actually like fish that much.  They treat it like chicken, overcook it, over season it, try to cover all of its natural flavor.  Good fresh fish and shellfish needs very little.  But then again, mackerel is one of my favorite types of sushi/sashimi, so I'm a bit unique I suppose.

I had herring this way in Amsterdam and it was fantastic.

I've mentioned before that I'm a huge advocate for the mortar and pestle.  And because of that I buy a lot of whole spices and fresh herbs.  There is a enormous flavor difference between whole spices and ground spices, it's somewhat similar to buying ground coffee in lieu of whole bean.  I realize this is an in depth conversation, but whole spices last longer and significantly less expensive.  I am so greatful to be near a number of Indian grocery stores.
