Cinnamon is a very fragrant spice that is actually the inner bark of a small tree native to Sri Lanka, but is now harvested almost everywhere. There is another type of cinnamon with a slightly more pungent and sweet taste that comes from China. It is a very powerful aromatic oil contained in the bark which gives cinnamon its exotic smell and its sweet, warm and recognizable flavor.
In Quebec (as in most Western countries), cinnamon is mainly used to spice up cakes, desserts and drinks, especially those made with apple and chocolate. However, you can also enhance a large number of savory recipes, as in many oriental and Middle Eastern dishes.
