Description
This special variety (Cinnamomum loureirii) of high-oil cinnamon was absent from the international market for more than 20 years due to the Vietnam war. Compared to Indonesian varieties, Vietnamese cinnamon has a distinctly sweet flavor and an exceptionally high volatile oil content. Gourmet cooks rate it as the highest quality cinnamon in the world.
Use the robust sweet flavor of Vietnamese cinnamon to enhance treats from cookies and cakes to puddings and pies, and it's a great choice for savory dishes like curries, sauces and vegetable dishes as well.
