Clove - the history of origin and use in cooking

Clove is a world-famous spice used to ennoble culinary masterpieces and fill them with nutrients. It has a characteristic odor and specific taste. Gives sharpness and flavor to any dish, be it a snack, main course or dessert.

The spice is represented by the buds of the evergreen carnation tree, which belongs to the myrtle family. You can find the plant in the tropics, where it begins to bloom twice a year. The buds are collected together with the stems. They are characterized by a bright red hue.

Due to the sun, the buds are already in the process of fermentation, as evidenced by the characteristic crunch when pressed on them. After the cloves are harvested, they are sent for drying, after which it turns into a full-fledged spice.

Where does the carnation come from and how did you find out about it?

Homeland carnations are the Moluccas , now known as Indonesia . Locals traded with China , whose population used spices as a breath freshener. While the plant conquered the territory of the Celestial Empire, some of the fruits were sent to Egypt , where the fruits became elements of various rituals.

The carnation later entered India , from where traders transported it to Rome and Greece. The active spread of spices in Europe is due to Arab and Indian merchants.

For a long time, the spice was considered gold, the value of which for many was sky-high. Everything changed in the 16th century , when the Portuguese began colonizing the islands. They monopolize the "clove business", becoming the only ones who grow and sell spices.

Already in the XIX century, the French were able to steal some of the seeds and secretly deliver them to the Mascarene and Seychelles. They quickly managed to create fairly large plantations. Active cultivation of spices by French producers contributed to the fact that it became significantly cheaper.

Today the spice is available to everyone. It comes from the same existing plantations, as well as from Madagascar, Jamaica, Zanzibar and other islands of Tanzania . The latter are the largest suppliers of spices in the world.
