A poem by inky

They’re lined up in the cupboard

Innocent enough to the human eye

but when added to a stock, soup or stew

can add that extra special zing

and when added to the humble vegetable

an explosion of flavour to the tastebuds

so much power from something so small

a zingy or zesty sensation –

and usually – a rise in heat.
