$3.50

Cinnamon is a sweet woody flavoured and intensely perfumed spice. Cinnamon is a key ingredient of (Chinese) five spice powder and (Indian) garam masala. It is one of the most widely used spices in the world. Cinnamon is most often associated with baking and dessert recipes (cakes, biscuits, fruit dishes and sweet cream based desserts) but is often used to add a fragrant earthy flavour to savoury dishes. Its woody sweetness and aroma makes it a favoured spice in Middle Eastern dishes.
