There are so many condiments in our cooking world. We know a few of them. Each condiment has a different nutritional value. Here I give the most common 40 condiments names and pictures. Hope this will help my new friends new in the cooking world.
“Condiments are edible food items which are additions to a dish or meal. These items are not strictly necessary to the dish or meal but add to the enjoyment by enhancing or contrasting with the main food. Some condiments are healthier than others: some may add amounts of calories, fat, or sodium to a meal that can be hard to justify. Condiments generally low in calories, fat, and sodium include the millennia-old classics of mustard and vinegar (note though that some types of mustard, such as Dijon, can be higher in sodium than others mustards are.) Almost every cuisine has its own range of unique condiments, though mustard and vinegar tend to be universal for the most part.” Source
