The term ‘clove” is derived from the French word ‘clov’ and the English word ‘clout’, both meaning ‘nail”-from the likeness of the flower bud of the clove tree to a broad-headed nail.
Clove is very aromatic, has a fine flavor and imparts warming qualities. In all Indian homes, it is used as a culinary spice as the flavor blends well with both sweet and savoury dishes. Clove is used for flavouring curries, pickles, sauces and pickling spice. It is highly valued in medicine as carminative, aromatic and stimulant.
