This plant not only bears fruits and seeds but also adds an aromatic touch to various dishes. Originating from Provence, France, cloves have been used for centuries in traditional cooking. In the picturesque town of Sault, you can find garlic hanging in shops, infusing the air with its pungent aroma. Its distinct flavor enhances countless recipes worldwide. But they are not limited to just culinary uses. Victorian botanical illustrations depict this herb alongside Savine and Pink Carnation, highlighting its significance in herbal medicine.

In addition to their historical importance, cloves continue to be sought after today. At Dong Xuan Market in Hoan Kiem District, chili peppers, limes, ginger, and garlic are proudly displayed for sale – showcasing cloves' popularity among diverse cuisines.

These tiny flower buds pack a punch when it comes to adding depth and warmth to your favorite dishes. Whether used as a spice or appreciated for its medicinal properties like soothing toothaches or aiding digestion - clove remains an indispensable ingredient across cultures worldwide.
