If you have been looking for the best spice racks for kitchen in India, your search is about to end in the next 10 minutes.
Historically, India has been a land of spices and Indian spices are known to be the most aromatic around the world. But, what if the spices stored in your kitchen are loosing aroma over the time, ironically this happens to the most of us.
One way to ensure the spices do not lose its aroma is to use a spice grinder.
Indian spices are traditionally stored in a steel box with around 6-8 containers. The problem is if you have to pick salt or black pepper, you will have to open the entire box and this exposes all the spices to the air.
This leads to spices loosing their texture and taste over a period of time.
The solution is a kitchen spice rack that will not only retain the original flavour of the spices, but will also help in saving kitchen space and improving the looks of your kitchen.
The best spice racks in India comes in Revolving and Non-Revolving shapes and both these types are very much affordable for an average Indian household.
If you are short on time, YouCopia Spice Organizer and MR Products Revolving Plastic Spice Rack are the best kitchen masala racks in India in 2023.

How to Choose the Best Spice Rack
1. Type and Design: Depending on the size of your kitchen, you can choose anything amongst free standing, pull out or wall mounted spice racks. For example, if space is less, you can go for a wall mounted spice rack. If space is not an issue, you can choose a pull out spice rack.
2. Purpose: If you have already have spice jars, you can go for a rack without jars unless you need more jars for your kitchen. On the other hand, if you do not have spice jars, you can go for a revolving spice rack as it comes with pre-occupied spice jars.
3. Durability: Choose a spice rack that is durable and should last for years to come. Avoid buying wooden spice racks as splashes of water, oil may end up damaging the looks.

5. Price: A spice rack is an inexpensive kitchen accessory and will not cost you more than a 1,000 INR unless you are buying a steel or wooden spice rack which we don’t recommend as it can loose the shine due to usage of water, oil, other liquids.
6. Space in the Kitchen: While looking for the best spice rack set in India, take into account the space available in the kitchen. Depending on the space you have, you may or may not want to look for a wall mounted spice rack for the kitchen.

9. Plastic or Glass Jars: If you have an eco-friendly approach to buy a spice rack, go for a rack that contains glass jars, and not the plastic ones. Glass jars may be a bit expensive, but they are good and safe for the environment. On the other hand, plastic jars should be BPA free and affordable.
