Strong clove is a traditional Christmas spice known, among others, as a warming flavor enhancer in mulled wine. Clove powder pairs excellently with fruits like apple and pear in pastries or fruit salads, and its intensity can be softened with vanilla, honey-like flavors. With clove powder, you can also season various hot drinks, pastries, and savory dishes. Sprinkle clove powder into cocoa or tea, add to spicy stews and sauces, or try enhancing traditional pastries like buns and cakes.
