Recipe Notes
Test Kitchen Tips
- Cinnamon comes in two basic types: Ceylon and cassia. Ceylon cinnamon’s delicate, complex flavour 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 savoury 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.
