If you tend to use a lot of the same ingredients, it is a good idea to research the best suppliers and buy your staples in bulk. Make sure you store them properly and freeze whenever possible to maintain freshness. When I first moved into my own place, my uncle gave me an upright deep freezer as a housewarming gift and I am so thankful every time I use it. It helps me to save money and have ingredients on hand for when I need them. I buy spices, flours, nuts, meat and poultry in bulk; divide into portioned sized freezer bags or containers; label with date and contents and freeze until needed.

Barry Farm Foods is a great resource for flours, spices and dry fruits! They are a chemical-free farm and can their own fresh fruits and vegetables, too.
