Enhance your dishes with the power of this little spice
Powerful and refreshing in both sweet and savory recipes, discover our Demeter clove powder! Called "bird's tongue" by the Chinese, who used it to refresh their mouths during the Han dynasty, cloves first appeared in Europe in the early Middle Ages. A bud from the flower of the Syzygium aromaticum clove tree, harvested before flowering and then dried in the sun, Terra Madre clove powder enhances your gingerbread, broths, poultry, vegetables or fruit with its warm, complex flavours, in the simplest of ways!
Our Demeter cloves, grown biodynamically, come from the Sahyadri association in the mountains of Kerala in southern India, and from the SOFA gardens in Sri Lanka, where our partner-producers grow both spices and tea.
