Does anyone have any food packing tips for ~a week's self catering? Often rental properties provide some tea bags, fd coffee, salt and pepper, but that's about it. There's usually more salt sachets than I'd use in a month, and fewer tea bags than I'd use in a week.
What essentials do you take with you to have a reasonably stocked kitchen? These are things that you wouldn't want to buy and bring back with you. I find it hard to decide which herbs and spices to pack. For me it involves some brutal choices: smoked paprika a must, but I wouldn't bring dried dill and oregano, so I bring mixed herbs which is an ersatz compromise for both.
