Angel Brand Whole Pimento offers the authentic, highly prized flavor of Caribbean Allspice. Pimento is a single spice, derived from the dried berries of the Pimenta dioica tree, that delivers a complex, warm flavor profile reminiscent of a blend of clove, cinnamon, and nutmeg—hence the name "Allspice."

This 1.5 oz (42g) container of whole seeds is essential for infusing deep, savory, and sweet notes into a wide variety of dishes, particularly in Caribbean and West African cooking.

Key Culinary Uses:

  • Jerk Seasoning: The whole seeds are foundational in authentic Jamaican jerk rubs and marinades, providing depth and smokiness.

  • Soups and Stews: Ideal for flavoring hearty stews, pepper soups, oxtail, and curries, where the whole berries can be added early in the cooking process.

  • Meat and Poultry: Use in marinades for chicken, fish, and goat meat dishes, or add to pot roasts for a rich, aromatic finish.

  • Pickling and Baking: Essential in pickling spice blends and frequently used in desserts, fruit preserves, and traditional holiday baked goods.
