Whole Cloves (Laung)

Whole cloves, also called laung, have an intense warm aroma with sweet and peppery notes. Their flavour is concentrated, so a few cloves are usually enough.

Best for: chai, biryani, pulao, curries, desserts, baking and homemade spice blends. Add whole while simmering and remove before serving, or grind only the amount needed.

Ingredient: whole dried cloves.

Storage: Keep airtight in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, heat and moisture.
