cloves

Cloves are the flower buds of the clove tree. Although small, cloves are giants when it comes to nutrition and flavour. With a sweet and aromatic taste, they are great in pot roasts, teas and baked goods. Cloves are one of the main ingredients in gingerbread cookies and a staple spice in Indian cuisine. Rich in many antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, they are also said to be good for soothing a toothache when chewed on. Store in an airtight container in a cool and dry place.
