About Clove

Clove is a fragrant spice derived from the flower buds of the clove tree, native to Indonesia. Used whole or ground, it brings a warm, slightly sweet, and peppery flavor to both savory and sweet dishes. Commonly found in Indian, Middle Eastern, and African cuisines, clove is also a key ingredient in spice blends like garam masala and chai. Nutritionally, clove is rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and K, manganese, and eugenol, a compound known for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. These nutrients may support immune health, digestion, and help combat oxidative stress. However, clove oil should be consumed in moderation, as excessive amounts could lead to liver toxicity. Its versatile flavor and health benefits make clove a small but powerful addition to meals and beverages.
