tarro = pot/jar bote = tin/can Explanation: Hi Kathy! Aquí "tarro" puede ser de vidrio, porcelana, e incluso de lata. "Bote" no se usa en LatAm, pero puede traducirse como "tin/can" si es de lata. Saludos #:) Reference: http://www.wordreference.com/ |

jar / plastic bottle or container Explanation: Collins gives “container” for “bote” if it’s made of plastic (although I realize you said you didn’t want to use that). Could you use “bottle?” It seems to be fairly common to refer to plastic spice containers this way. See the first link for a “3 oz. Plastic bottle of chili powder”, and the second link also talks about an 8 oz. “plastic bottle” (and the second one has no neck). And a 1-oz. plastic bottle from McCormick here: http://www.espicebazar.com/spices&herbs.asp Hope it helps.

another thought: tub Explanation: It would depend on your picture, but tub is another possibility for a plastic container (different type than bottle, of course). The first link below has a picture. From the second link: GOOD WITH FISH HERB SEA SALT Even the taste of particularly salty fish benefits from this flavour. Also good with chicken. Unbleached sea salt, Fennel, Peppers Available in 200gm glass bottle or 300gm airtight plastic tub No picture, unfortunately. Hope it helps.
