USING CASSIA WHEN PICKLING
Some old-fashioned pickle recipes call for "cassia".
According to information in the December, 1977 issue of
Sphere magazine, most of the cinnamon imported into the
United States is the hearty, rust-colored cinnamon cassia.
Spice importers know it as "cassia", but package labels say
cinnamon.
