You do not wish to use a spice like ginger for a dish that has beef in it. Ginger doesn’t go well with meat. If you want to cook beef, you can use allspice, oregano, cumin, and pepper. Ginger would be good with chicken, beef, or pork.
Don’t make your dish too spicy.
You would not want to put in too much of a spice. You wouldn’t want to put in cayenne for a dish that has meat in it. Cayenne can be too spicy for the meat. If you want to spice up the meat, you can use paprika, cumin, and oregano.
Make sure you do not burn the spices.
If you burn the spices, it will give your dish an awful taste. You can mix the spices with a bit of oil first and then add them to the dish. Mixing the spice with oil helps to avoid burning them and keeping the spices fresh.
