For many years now, cinnamon has been used to spice food. In the recent past, people have learnt the art of making cinnamon flavored toothpicks to help them consume more of the cinnamon. This is because it has a great medicinal value, it used to get rid of bad breath, and it also helps in getting rid of food particles from teeth. To make cinnamon toothpicks, you need cinnamon liquid, the sticks and an airtight jar.
The first step is to pour the required amount of cinnamon into a container. In this case, two ounces is enough. The container should be airtight. It should also have a lid that fits properly. Make sure that the jar is not too large so that the cinnamon covers the bottom completely.
The next face involves putting the carefully shopped sticks inside the container. The number of sticks should be sufficient enough to absorb all the cinnamon. Failure to do this could lower the quality of sticks since some might be clogged with too much cinnamon.
After you have carefully arranged the sticks inside the container, you need to close it tightly. You need to ensure the lead is firm enough so as to avoid any form of leakage that could lead to the loss of the cinnamon. You should then go ahead and invert the container in order to allow for even distribution of the flavor inside the sticks.
You should let the jar remain that way overnight. This is to allow enough time for the sticks to absorb as much flavor as possible. Even though the cinnamon is only a small amount, you will find that it will work effectively because of its strong scent and the air tight container. In the morning, you will find that the stick will be wet from the cinnamon, and they will have acquired this flavor.
Once the twelve hours are over, remove the sticks from the container. You should place them on a place which is nonabsorbent. This is so that it does not such the cinnamon from the sticks. The place should be clean too. Wash your hands properly before handling the sticks so that you do not contaminate them.
To determine whether the sticks are completely dry, you need to feel them with your fingers. If there are no stains left on your fingers, you can be sure that they are dry. The only job left would be to collect the sticks using disinfected hands so as to avoid germs.
The last step is to pack them. Do this in an air tight container so that they do not lose the flavor with time. If they are for home use, keep them in a tight container. Those for sale should be sealed properly too. If there is any cinnamon that remained in the container, tightly close it in and leave it for use next time.
