Clove powder is a fine spice obtained by grinding the dried flower buds of the clove tree (Syzygium aromaticum), native to the Maluku Islands in Indonesia. This ingredient is widely used in cooking to add a warm, sweet, and aromatic flavor to a wide variety of dishes, from stews and marinades to desserts and beverages.
In recipe preparation, clove powder adds depth and an unmistakable spicy touch, ideal for traditional dishes in Latin American and global cuisine. In addition to its culinary use, it possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties, which provide health benefits when used in moderation.
In different regions of Latin America, clove powder may have different names, although it is commonly called simply ground clove. Other less frequent synonyms include powdered clove or in some countries simply clove, referring to both the whole spice and its powdered version.
