Allspice (Pimento) Berries – Bold, Fragrant & Wonderfully Complex
Despite the name, allspice isn’t a blend—it’s a single spice with a flavour that echoes cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and pepper all at once. These dried berries, native to the Caribbean and Central America, are a warming powerhouse in both sweet and savoury dishes.
Why we love them:
Multilayered Flavour: A one-spice wonder that brings depth and complexity to baking, stews, sauces, and rubs.
Traditional Remedy: Often used in herbal traditions to ease digestion and support circulation.
Aromatic Magic: Crushed or infused, allspice adds a sweet, peppery warmth to mulled drinks, marinades, and desserts.
Long Shelf Life: Whole berries preserve their essential oils and potency far longer than ground spice—grind fresh when needed for boldest flavour.
How to enjoy:
Baking: Add to gingerbread, fruit cakes, and pumpkin pie for rich, spiced warmth.
Slow Cooking: Drop a few berries into soups, stews, and braises to infuse a mellow, peppery sweetness.
Pickling: Essential in pickling spice blends for vegetables, chutneys, and relishes.
Spice Blends: Crush and combine with cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon for DIY spice mixes or jerk seasoning.
