Syzygium aromaticum

Cloves

A noble dentist, dried rose, heat that lingers.

Where it comes from. The Moluccas again. In Italy they are the nail in Christmas orange and capon broth.

The mistake everyone makes. Leaving them on the plate. One is enough. Two dominate. Three ruin.

An unexpected Italian use. A studded onion in broth, arista, spiced wine, a reduction for beef fillet.

The recipe. Fillet, wine reduction, one clove, a square of chocolate. The pairing Ginny made on television with Amarone.
