Whole Cloves

Whole Cloves (Lobongo) — Warm, Sweet Spice with Deep Aroma

Whole Cloves bring a strong, warm and slightly sweet aroma to savoury and sweet cooking. Commonly known in Bangladesh as Lobongo (লবঙ্গ), they are widely used in biryani, pulao, curries, meat dishes, tea, desserts and spice blends. Use them whole during cooking so their essential oils release gradually, then remove before serving when preferred.
