Cinnamon: what it is, how to pick and store it
The dried bark of a tropical tree, sold ground or as sticks: sweet and warm, for baking, oatmeal and some savory stews.
How to pick it
Ground cinnamon for baking; sticks for simmering in cider, rice pudding or a stew, then fish them out.
How to store it
Keep it in a closed jar away from heat, steam and light (not above the stove). Ground spices fade with time: if it smells faint, it will taste faint, so use a little more or replace it.
Out of cinnamon? What to use instead
- Pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice: The same amount. Mostly cinnamon, with ginger, nutmeg and allspice or cloves: a little spicier.
- Ground allspice or nutmeg: About ¼ the amount. Much stronger and different, but warm in the same way.
