Whole Clove — 4 oz

Whole Sri Lankan cloves with an intense, sweet-spiced aroma that can perfume an entire pot from just a few buds.

What It Is

Cloves are the dried flower buds of Syzygium aromaticum. Keeping them whole helps protect their concentrated aroma until they are crushed, ground or infused.

Taste & Aroma

Warm, sweet, woody and deeply aromatic, with a sharp peppery edge and a lingering cooling quality.

How to Use

• Add a few whole cloves to rice, stews, broths and curries.
• Infuse in chai, mulled drinks, cider or poaching liquids.
• Use in pickling spice and savory spice blends.
• Toast briefly before grinding for a deeper aroma.
• Remove whole cloves before serving unless the recipe calls for them to remain.
