How To Make Cinnamon Oil

    Cinnamon oil is a widely used ingredient for making apple butter, candied apples, candied popcorn, and more. Used in chocolate icings,
ice cream and baking, the intense cinnamon flavor adds a delicious, flavorful twist. While the stick and powdered form of cinnamon is
obtained from the bark, cinnamon oil comes from both the bark and leaves. The oil is intensely flavorful. Use sparingly in recipes calling for
cinnamon flavor. For a less intense cinnamon oil, try making some on your own. Merely place several cinnamon sticks in a small glass jar.
Cover the sticks with olive oil. Close, and leave the jar in a dark, cool space for 2 weeks. 

 
CLOVE - Oil of Clove is 60 to 90 percent eugenol, which is a potent pain deadening anti-microbial. Clove has earned the official
endorsement of the FDA as an effective stopgap measure for tooth pain. Clove also helps lower blood sugar by helping the body
use insulin more effectively. Cloves were also found in one study to speed healing of dreaded cold sores.
