    In many, many, many cuisines it is common to leave even the large spice elements in whole. Partially for the aesthetic and partially as proof of ingredients.

      When the food is served hot/warm, then the aroma from the whole spices is an important element of the dining experience.

      Sometimes it’s also possible to just miss some, especially if you’re pre-making giant portions of bases in a restaurant.
