CINNAMON
The spice we know as cinnamon is the dried bark of the small evergreen tree Cinnamomum zeylanicum which grows in Sri Lanka and southern India (pictured right). The bark of this tree is often referred to as "Ceylon cinnamon" or "true cinnamon". This is to differentiate it from the bark of a related tree, Cinnamomum cassia (L.) Presl, the bark of which is often referred to as "Chinese cinnamon". Although the spices from the two trees taste similar, connoisseurs suggest that Chinese cinnamon has a slightly bitter flavour compared to Ceylon cinnamon. Most commercial ground cinnamon is often a mixture of true cinnamon and cassia. In some cases it may be entirely cassia. USES OF CINNAMON Cinnamon has been known of for many years and its uses are wide ranging. It was regarded as a spice of high value by many different civilisations. In biblical times it was used as a perfume in anointing oil and also for beds. The fragrance of cinnamon was also exploited by the Egyptians who are believed to have used the spice when embalming mummies. The Romans also placed a high value on cinnamon. It is said that the emperor Nero (shown left) burned a year’s supply of the spice at the funeral of his second wife, Poppaea Sabina. This act was carried out to indicate the extent of the remorse he felt after allegedly murdering her (it is thought that he kicked her to death). Cinnamon is reported to have many desirable medicinal and soothing effects and is thus used frequently in Chinese herbal medicine. It is claimed that cinnamon can be used to treat diarrhoea and arthritis. It can also be used to alleviate the symptoms of colds. Cinnamon is also widely used in cooking due to its intense aroma and flavour. It can be used in its bark state (cinnamon sticks) or ground to a fine powder. It is a versatile ingredient and can be added to enhance the flavour of both savoury and sweet dishes. Sweet manufacturers often use cinnamon flavourings when making hot and spicy sweets. 4-Methoxycinnamic acid, also known as para-methoxycinnamate or O-methyl-p-coumarate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cinnamic acids. These are organic aromatic compounds containing a benzene and a carboxylic acid group forming 3-phenylprop-2-enoic acid. 4-Methoxycinnamic acid exists as a solid and is considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral. 4-Methoxycinnamic acid has been detected in multiple biofluids, such as urine and blood. Within the cell, 4-methoxycinnamic acid is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP). Outside of the human body, 4-methoxycinnamic acid can be found in turmeric and wild celery. This makes 4-methoxycinnamic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. |
