Cinnamon comes from the dried bark of various laurel trees. Cinnamon sticks are made from long pieces of bark that are rolled, pressed, and dried. Ground cinnamon comes from drying the central part of the bark, is mostly used in baking and cooking, while stick cinnamon is mostly used for pickling or flavoring beverages. Cinnamon oil is derived from the waste products of the drying process and from the pointed black fruit the trees bear which is usually used for medicinal purposes and flavorings.

Wow! I've always wondered what that was for. Maybe we need a thread on, what's that for?. For instance, I have this little Weber Grill that has the piece of aluminum for holding the lid on the side, but it has no instructions on how to use it. It took me several years to figure out that you have to first fold the handle down, and lock it into that piece of aluminum, and then you set the lid down. And there's two ways to place the handle into the aluminum upright, but only one way works. But there is nothing in the instructions about it. I have another one of those, but can't remember it right now. I wonder why the manufactures make things like that and then don't tell you. |
