Nature’s Best Whole Clove – 1.61 oz

Details:
Cloves are not actually sticks or pieces of wood, but dried, unopened flower buds. These delicate flowers originate from the Moluccas, a volcanic island chain near Indonesia. Due to the popularity of cloves as a spice, few people ever get to see the small, red flowers in their natural form.
Used in cuisines worldwide, cloves are especially popular in Asian, African, and Middle Eastern cooking for savory dishes, while in Europe and the Americas, they are often used in baking, especially in breads and desserts.
Cloves also have a long history of medicinal use. Their essential oils can help with digestion by increasing stomach acid, relax muscles, and whole cloves have been used as natural oral pain relievers (place one near a sore tooth for relief).
