  • ALL SPICE

    $2.50$4.50

    Allspice berries are dark-brown with a clove-like taste, used in pickles and sweet dishes.  This fragrant berry is dried and either used whole or ground, predominantly in Caribbean cuisine and is a primary ingredient in our Jerk Seasoning (Jamaican Marinade).(SML PKT)

    Other Common Names: Pimento, Jamaica Pepper, Bay Rum Berry. Botanical Name: (Pimenta dioica)
    Produce of Jamaica packed in Australia.

    Description & Use: Allspice berries are the dried, unripe fruits of a tropical evergreen tree native to Jamaica. They are dark brown in colour and average 3mm in diameter. The common name allspice is given because the flavour is like a mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Ground allspice should not be confused with mixed spice, which is much milder and sweeter in flavour. Allspice berries are added to pickles and are an ingredient in pickling spices. Scandinavian staples such as herrings in tomato sauce are spiced with allspice, as are many mainstream commercial sauces. Allspice powder is a good substitute for ground cloves in cakes and pastries, when a less pungent flavour is desired.

  • ASAFOETIDA 15GM

    $2.50

    Asafoetida powder has been compounded with rice flour (SML PKT) May contain traces of gluten due to manufacturing practices.

    Other Common Names: Devil’s Dung, Food of the Gods, Hing, Laser. Botanical Name: (Ferula asafoetida)
    Produce of India packed in Australia.
    Description & Use: Named after its fetid aroma, Asafoetida is made from the white resinous sap, which turns dark brown on drying, of a variety of giant Fennel. It is a close relative to the now extinct ‘laser root’ that was mentioned in Roman cooking. Due to the difficulty in handling the resinous gum it is usually blended with some form of starch to make it manageable. Asafoetida is used mostly in Indian vegetarian meals, while the fetid flavour dissipates on cooking where it adds a garlic-like flavour with onion overtones. Always use in small amounts and keep very well sealed to prevent contamination of the flavour to other ingredients in the pantry.
    Contains: rice flour, gum arabic, asafoetida resin, turmeric.
    No added wheat, however may contain traces of gluten less than 20ppm due to manufacturing practices.
