spices in spanish

Question

i want to know the names of spices in spanish one that i am looking for is called epasote in spanish but the dictionary can't tell me what it is in spanish, it is used for fish

Answer 1

Yes, epazote. The Mexicans use it when cooking beans as well. There are anti-gas properties in it, so well...in theory, cooking a couple of sprigs into a pot of beans ought to do the trick. I use it in beans here all the time and it well....seems to help.

The word itself comes from the Nahuatl language.

For the heck of it, I am enclosing a wiki link to give you a little more (I'm giving you more than you ask for, I realize...but I'm a foodie!)

Answer 2

It is spelled " Epazote " in English it is Wormseed

Gracias, I have used epazote in my beans and have used wormseed as a medicine, but never knew they were the same. - sagiia, Apr 4, 2010
