Get Choumicha's book Gingersnap. Practice a few recipes then you get a hang of what spices are used with what. You will be able to add your own touch too. Really isn't that hard.

In response to Colombo - it takes as long as it takes to read the the recipe and cook the meal. All of my attempts have been winners. Always said cooking was easy when you know how
