ALLSPICE

(Pimenta officinalis; Pimenta dioica)

1 pound allspice = 6 cups
1 ounce = 6 tablespoons
1 tablespoon = 1/6 ounce

Allspice flavor and aroma is a pleasant blend of cinnamon and clove.

Allspice is generally described as possessing a woody, cinnamon-like flavor which is slightly numbing.

Allspice is used in seasonings, sauces, sausages, ketchup, jams, pumpkin, gravies, roasts, hams, baked goods, and teas. Caribbean cooking relies on Allspice as the main ingredient in jerk seasoning. It is used in Caribbean, Mexican, Indian, English, and North American cooking and in seasoning blends such as jerk seasoning and curry.
