Cloves are the dried, ground flower buds of
the evergreen Caryaphyllus aromaticus
Thunb. Regal Ground Cloves have a
strong, pungent, and sweet taste.
Ground cloves add spicy depth to
gingerbread, cookies, applesauce,
muffins, cakes, and other sweets. It's a
secret ingredient in barbecue and cocktail
sauces. Blend Regal Ground Cloves with
maple syrup and drizzle over cooked sweet
potatoes and winter squash. You can
substitute these ground cloves for whole
cloves if need be. It is not recommended to
substitute ground cloves for whole cloves
in all recipes, but on as need basis. The
substitution conversion is 1/4 tsp ground
cloves for 3 whole cloves.
Cloves can easily overpower a dish, in
particular when ground, so use sparingly.
Sold in an 8 oz. bottle.
