Chirika:
Thyme, a poetic name, but its fragrance can travel thousands of miles. In the traditional non-spicy flavor, it is complemented by three common spices: star anise, cinnamon, and cumin, and is often used as an accompaniment. Due to its long retention of aromas, thyme is able to enrich the aroma in the mouth, adding a long-lasting charm to the ingredients.
In the compound application of spicy flavors, thyme can also play its unique role. This is mainly due to the fact that its aroma is relatively independent and is not easily masked by other spices. At the same time, it also has a spicy sensation that blends with the spicy flavor to add a unique flavor to the ingredients.
Clove:
This well-known spice is known as the "fragrance through the bones". Its name comes from its deep bone marrow aroma, which allows the aroma of cloves to penetrate deep into the ingredients and leave a unique aroma even in the bone-in ingredients.
In the configuration of compound spices, cloves play an indispensable role. Not only is it a powerful penetrating force that brings the flavors of other spices deep into the ingredients, but it is also a spice that is often used to create afternotes. The after-fragrance characteristics of cloves make its aroma last for a long time, thus prolonging the overall after-fragrance experience time and achieving an unforgettable mouth-lingering effect.
