Cassia

Cassia Bark has a pleasantly sweet & strong aromatic flavour.  It is closely related to cinnamon, and is widely used in Indian, Sri Lankan, Chinese & Persian cuisines, and also in curry blends, stews and fragrant rice dishes.  Cassia bark is the preferred spice to use in strong, spicy dishes. To use the bark, simply break off a small piece and add to your dish when cooking; the bark should be removed before serving.
