Fudco Sri Lankan Cinnamon Quills 75g
Description
Aroma: Delicate, Sweet & Highly Fragrant
Flavour: Subtly Sweet, Warm & Citrusy Notes
Fudco Sri Lankan Cinnamon Quills (also known as "True" or Ceylon Cinnamon) are the gold standard of the spice world. Unlike the harder, spicier Cassia bark found in most supermarkets, these quills are made of many thin, paper-like layers rolled together. They offer a refined, complex sweetness and a delicate crumbly texture that is miles apart from the pungent "hot" cinnamon commonly used in baking.
-
The Secret Pinch: Use a whole quill as a natural stirrer for hot chocolate, coffee, or mulled wine; the heat will gently release the oils without overpowering the drink. For a gourmet rice dish, snap a small piece into your boiling water to impart a subtle, floral sweetness that standard cinnamon can’t replicate.
-
Culinary Versatility: The preferred choice for delicate desserts like rice pudding, custard, or poached pears; it is essential for authentic Mexican dishes (where it is known as "Canela") and light Middle Eastern pilafs. Because it is lower in coumarin than Cassia, it is also the healthier choice for daily use.
-
Premium Ingredients: Sourced exclusively from Sri Lanka, these quills are hand-rolled from the soft inner bark of the Cinnamomum verum tree. They are prized for their light tan colour and their ability to be easily crushed between your fingers.
-
Authentic Heritage: Known as "True Cinnamon," this variety has been a luxury commodity for centuries. It represents a more sophisticated flavour profile used in high-end European confectionery and traditional Ayurvedic practices for its warming, digestive properties.
-
Storage & Care: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Ceylon cinnamon is more delicate than other varieties; to keep its ethereal aroma from escaping, ensure the lid is sealed tight and avoid pre-grinding large amounts, as the fine powder loses its citrusy top notes quickly.
