So, what is kanel?
Kanel, also known as cinnamon, is a sweet and aromatic spice that adds a warm and comforting flavor to dishes. The spice is derived from the inner bark of Cinnamomum trees and has a distinctive woody and earthy scent. Kanel is commonly used in baking and desserts, such as cinnamon rolls and apple pie, but can also be found in savory dishes, like curries and stews. It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and studies have shown it may have beneficial effects on blood sugar levels and heart health.
