East End Cinnamon (Dalchini) Stick – 16x100g

Description

E.E. Cinnamon (Dalchini) Stick: fragrant whole quills for infusing sweet and savoury dishes.

These are whole cinnamon sticks from East End Foods, known in South Asian cooking as dalchini. The format 16x100g means sixteen 100g packs inside one case, a handy layout for portioning across sections or keeping stock sealed and fresh. Whole sticks bring a warm, sweet, woody fragrance and are perfect for infusing a dish, then lifting out before serving.

Key Features

• Sixteen 100g packs per case, easy to store and distribute across a kitchen
• Whole stick form that infuses gently and keeps its aroma far longer than ground cinnamon
• Works across savoury curries and rice as well as sweet bakes and drinks
• A little goes a long way, so a case lasts well in regular use
• Packed by East End Foods, a familiar UK spice brand

Cooking and Uses: Drop a stick into hot oil or ghee at the start of a biryani, pilau or curry to perfume the base, or simmer in stocks, chai, mulled wine and cider. Sticks are lovely in rice pudding, poached fruit, syrups and slow cooked tagines. They are usually removed before eating, as the whole bark is too firm to chew.

Storage

Keep in a cool, dry cupboard away from sunlight and reseal the pack to preserve the fragrant oils.
