With distant origins in China, cloves, as the most well-known spice, are widely used in cooking and baking. Cloves are the dried flower buds of the clove tree, which have a warming effect on the body. The freshly ground powder of cloves has antiparasitic properties and helps cleanse the digestive tract and blood from various parasites, especially their eggs.
As a bactericidal and anesthetic, cloves are widely used in traditional medicine for conditions such as bad breath.
Usage: Cloves are used as a spice in many recipes with pasta, chicken, as well as in pies or drinks. Finally, they are widely used in liqueurs.
