Cloves
Cloves are dried flower buds from the Syzygium aromaticum tree, a tropical evergreen in the Myrtaceae family native to Indonesia. Known for their intense, warm aroma and sweet-spicy flavor, they contain high concentrations of eugenol, an antioxidant compound with anti-inflammatory properties. Whole or ground cloves are used globally in spice blends, baked goods, and savory dishes, while their essential oil is valued in both culinary and traditional medicinal applications.
