CLOVE
The clove plant has its origin in Indonesia (the Molucca Islands). The Portuguese carried it to the East African islands. Today, clove is produced on a great scale both in Madagascar and Tanzania. Clove is a common spice in African cookery, and is also one of the ingredients in five-spice powder. Mostly grown small scale in compound gardens.
