Herbs are usually the leafy parts for plants and can be sweet or savoury in flavour. Spices are seasonings obtained from parts of a plant such as fruits and seed, bark, dried buds, stigma, roots and rhizomes and resin used in food for flavour, color or as preservatives.
Herbs can be classified into different types such as culinary, medicinal, sacred and those used for pest control. Spices are used to flavor and color food and often also used as remedies for some ailments.
Herbs are mostly from the leaves from plants and used for providing flavor in cooking (thyme, lavender, coriander leaves), for health purposes (“shilajit”, Kava) in some cultures and used for pest control (mint, peppermint). Spices that are used to flavor food include coriander, fennel, mustard, cinnamon, mace, clove, saffron, ginger, asafoetida, and those used as a treatment for ailments are asafoetida, bay leaf oil, cinnamon, cloves, cumin, fenugreek, turmeric etc. .
