Kitchen-organisation influencers insist a system only works if you actually use it, then photograph a spice rack nobody has touched since it was labelled.
Commit to the system. Alphabetise every jar and cook with one spice at a time, starting at A, until it runs out. Field notes: allspice lasted nine days, breakfast included; cardamom carried the household through a fortnight of porridge. Paprika arrives in March, turmeric by summer, and the family now eats out on any night a new letter is due.
