CHILLI PWD KASHMIRI
$2.50 – $4.50One of the reddest varieties of chillies, ideal for tandoori cooking for spicyness and colour. (SML PKT)
Other Common Names: Aji, Red Pepper. Botanical Names: Mild Chillies: (Capsicum annuum) Hot Chillies: (Capsicum frutescens) Fruity Chillies: (Capsicum baccatum) Extra Hot Chillies: (Capsicum chinense) Hairy Leaved Chillies: (Capsicum pubescens)
Description & Use: There are literally hundreds of different chillies, all of which descend from the original ones discovered by the Spanish when they found the Americas. Prior to this chillies were unknown to the rest of the world. The warming bite and delicious capsicum taste of chilli was warmly embraced by nearly every nation on earth, thus we find some form of capsicum or chilli in nearly every cuisine. Dried chillies have a very different flavour to fresh ones, as upon drying a caramelization of the sugars takes place which creates a delicious, robust taste not found in fresh chillies, in the same way a sun-dried tomato has a more complex flavour profile than a fresh one.
Chilli Kashmiri: Kashmiri chillies do not necessarily come from Kashmir, however they are a popular Indian chilli with a very high colour content, making the food they are used in strikingly red. Heat level: 7 out of 10. Produce of India packed in Australia.

CLOVE PWD 25GM
$2.50Add to cakes, biscuits and fruit puddings for a delicious spicy flavour.(SML PKT)
Other Common Names: Nelkin, Ting-Hiang Botanical Name: (Eugenia caryophyllata)
Description & Use: Cloves are the dried unopened flower buds of a tropical evergreen tree. They are picked when they begin to turn red at the base and are dried in the sun. Native to the Moluccas, introduced to China in 200 B.C.. Used to perfume the breath and as an antiseptic. Culinary uses include use in sweet spice blends for cakes and fruit to pickles, preserved meats and curries. Cloves are considered to be a pungent spice having a strong ‘antiseptic’ note that reminds many of us of the dentist! Good quality cloves should be intact, uniform in size and shape, dark brown with a lighter brown top to the bud and have no pieces of stem. Ground cloves are commonly adulterated with clove stem, which does have high oil levels but more fibre and less flavour than the buds. Cloves are generally used in small quantities, so buy small amounts and store well.
