[Vyrtse] Allspice whole, 100g

Vyrtse allspice whole

 Origin

We have Christopher Columbus to thank for the discovery of allspice. His search for a new route to India led him to the Caribbean. When the brown grains were discovered, it was believed that pepper had been found, and so the sailors named this new spice "pimienta".
The aromatic berries are reminiscent of nutmeg, cinnamon, pepper and cloves. This is why allspice is also known as clove pepper, or Jamaica pepper because of its origin.

The berries come from the evergreen pepper myrtle, which reaches heights of over 10 meters. The berries are harvested unripe. This is the only way to preserve the essential oils in the fruit. Allspice can be used in many different ways in the kitchen.
Due to its similar character, the spice can be used instead of cloves or nutmeg. Allspice is often combined with bay leaf or other types of pepper.

Our allspice comes from Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras
