Cassia bark (Chinese cinnamon)

Dalchini
2.6 g1 teaspoon
8 g1 tablespoon
1.3 g1 2.5 cm piece

Cassia (Cinnamomum cassia), also called Chinese cinnamon: thick, rough, single-layer bark with a strong, spicy-sweet taste. It is what India sells as dalchini and what most UK and US shops sell as cinnamon sticks, and what these recipes mean unless they say Ceylon. Ceylon or 'true' cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) is thin, papery bark rolled in many layers, milder and sweeter. A 2.5 cm piece weighs about 1.3 g.

Instead of Cassia bark (Chinese cinnamon)
