During the 12th century, spices were known and appreciated in Catalonia and Languedoc by a great part of society. The success of spices was a result of their organoleptic qualities, their dietetic virtues and their exoticism due to their remote origin. To have pepper, ginger or cloves became a sign of distinction and good taste. In the central centuries of the Middle Ages, oriental seasonings had a social and cultural role much more important than it has been thought.
