Allspice Berries

Premium Sweet Guatemala Allspice are the dried berries of a beautiful evergreen tree. Native to the Caribbean, Central America and Mexico, its characteristic combination of sugar and spice is a key element in dishes like jerk chicken, mole and countless local marinades.  This allspice has a characteristic smoky warmth, reminiscent of toasted almonds and baked fruit. It’s a perfect addition to spiced holiday desserts like pumpkin or apple pie; it adds depth and complexity to beverages like cocktails, chai masala or hot chocolate; and it even works well with meat dishes like chili, bolognese or curries.   Sourced from Burlap and Barrel Ground Allspice is grown in Verapaz Guatemala, hand-harvested and sun-dried.     COOKING Sprinkle onto ground beef, stews and BBQ sauce Add to gingerbread cookies, compotes and pies Mix into masala chai or spiced cider Earthy, baked apple, toasted almond, smoke Pairs well with: Cinnamon, Cloves, Nutmeg, Raw Cane Sugar
