Dried foods and spices

Dried foods, powders and spices are measured in a concentrated form, so a spoonful of dried herbs can outrank a whole portion of fresh food per 100 g. To keep the default ranking comparable they are hidden. They are still in the data: switch on “Dried” to include them, or search for one by name.
