Cinnamooon
What has happened to Cinnamon?
I can't eat sweet stuff but once in a great while I have a hankering for a cinnamon roll.
Apple sauce, from good apples, cinnamon and spice cake with apple sauce and cinnamon frosting served cold and strong with Cinnamon flavor was a favorite when growing up.
It's been a while since wife made one but it still lacked the cinnamon zing.
She uses a lot of modernized? receipts from magazines and cookbooks, evidently with taste buds killed with alcohol and cigarets or something so maybe that is some of the answer.
We buy expensive Saigon Cinnamon. Can't find Ceylon Cinnamon.
The high dollar Cinnamon Rolls they used to sell outside PX, were fairly good as in sweet but still weak in the Cinnamon flavor.
We buy Saigon Cinnamon sticks too, so hard they would wreck a blender, and still weak.
Where do you get, good, really good cinnamon and other spices and what is their proper labeling or names??
