The clove tree is a small evergreen from 20 to 40 feet high and native to Indonesia. As we know them, cloves are the unopened buds of the Clove tree.
Cloves, ground or whole, have a wide variety of uses and compliment just about any sweet or savory dish from desserts, beverages, cooked fruits, chutneys, relishes, pickled beets to meats, fish, eggs, and vegetables.
It is also a popular addition to smoking tobaccos in many countries.
