My grandmother always puts cloves in the onion and here’s why

Clove + onion: a magical combination:

Why is this blend so effective? First, because clove is a powerful herb. Applied sparingly, it releases a warm, slightly sweet, and resinous aroma that adds depth to any dish.

The result? Your homemade broths, vegetable soups, and sauces enhance their aromatic richness without excess.

How to use it?
You don’t need to be a Michelin-starred chef to adopt this trick. All you need to do is:

Strip a whole onion (without cutting it).
Push in 3 to 6 cloves, depending on the size of the onion and the desired flavor intensity.
Add the studded onion to the preparation: soup, broth, stew or homemade sauce.
Let it boil while cooking, then remove it before serving. It will have released its subtle aroma.
