Good Eats did a show about spices, in which Alton recommends you buy tins and velcro them to the inside of your cupboards, to save space. That's a neat idea, except you need nice, flat tins, where the lid stays on if you suspend it on the door sideways. I can't find any. The closest I found were some where the lid fell off after a few minutes. Luckily all I had in there were sesame seeds. If i had had asafoetida in there, I probably would have been evicted.
