Originating from Southeast Asia, cinnamon is the inner bark of cinnamon trees, from the Lauraceae family.
Cinnamon is harvested at the beginning of the rainy season because this is when the tree's bark fills with sap and is most easily cut. Incisions are then made on the underside of the trunks and branches. The bark is cut into large strips and then, with the help of a knife, separated from the tree. The bark is scraped away to retain only the inner bark. The resulting pieces of inner bark are then ground and dried to produce ground cinnamon with a sweet, subtle flavor.
