I need these, because I often start a recipe and then realize I don't have all the necessary spices. Instead of leaving a spice out, use this list.
When a recipe call for fresh herbs and you only have dried, here's the trick: 1 Tablespoon fresh herbs is equal to 1 teaspoon dried herbs.

Basil: Oregano or Thyme
Cardamom: Ginger
Chervil: Tarragon or Parsley

Mace: Allspice, Cinnamon, Ginger, or Nutmeg
Marjoram: Basil, Thyme, or Savory
Mint: Basil, Marjoram, or Rosemary
Nutmeg: Cinnamon, Ginger, or Mace
Oregano: Thyme or Basil
Parsley: Chervil or Cilantro
Poultry Seasoning: 1/2 part Sage and 1/2 part equal blend of Thyme, Marjoram, Savory, Black Pepper, and Rosemary
Red Pepper: 1/4 amount of Hot Pepper Sauce
