CLOVES: The precious little ‘nails’ that make food taste better

Abstract

No real apple pie can be made without cloves, and the piquant little dark brown spice‐buds are a commodity known and treasured for well over 2,000 years. Indeed, they are one of the three great spices upon which whole civilisations were once built, the others being cinnamon and pepper.
