Test Kitchen Tips

Cinnamon comes in two basic types: Ceylon and cassia. Ceylon cinnamon’s delicate, complex flavor is ideal for ice creams and simple sauces. The spicy, bolder cassia cinnamon (often labeled simply as cinnamon) is preferred for baking.

Nutmeg is the secret spice in many savory dishes. It’s commonly used in white sauces, pastas and potato dishes. Be careful not to overdo it. A small amount of the spice goes a long way.
