Originally only found on the tiny Molucca Islands of Indonesia, cloves are the unopened flower buds of a small evergreen tree. They have a pungent, spicy aroma with a flavor to match. Cloves go well with both sweet and savory foods and are common in South and Southeast Asian foods as well as in the traditional European meat rub, Beau Monde. Our premium cloves are more plump and flavorful than what you will find in the grocery store - you will certainly notice a difference.
Spices and herbs should be stored away from light, heat and moisture. However, storing spices in the refrigerator or freezer may actually shorten their shelf life and they risk picking up other food odors. In general, whole spices have a longer shelf life than ground spices. Depending on the spice and how well it is stored, a good rule of thumb is six months to a year for powdered spices and longer for whole spices and seeds. The best way to determine if your spices or herbs are still fresh is to close your eyes and sniff – if you cannot immediately tell what the herb or spice is, toss it!
