About this ingredient

Cinnamon bark is suited to recipes that need a rustic, slow infusion of warm spice rather than a fine powdered note.

Flavour and aroma

Warm, woody and gently sweet, with a robust character during long cooking.

Ways to use it

• Simmer in tea, kahwa and spiced beverages
• Add to curries, meat gravies and slow-cooked dishes
• Use in pickling liquid, compotes and homemade spice blends

Kitchen tip

Break off only what the recipe needs. Toast very briefly for masala blends, or simmer whole and remove before serving.

Storage

Keep the bark dry and tightly sealed. Whole bark retains aroma longer than powder when protected from humidity.
