So, what is pimento?
Pimento, also known as allspice or Jamaican pepper, is a spice that is native to Central America and the Caribbean. It is the dried, unripe fruit of the Pimenta dioica tree and is prized for its warm, sweet, and slightly peppery flavor that is reminiscent of a blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Pimento is commonly used in Caribbean, Latin American, and Middle Eastern cuisine to flavor meats, stews, sauces, and baked goods. It is also a popular ingredient in pickling and canning recipes, as its vibrant red color and tangy flavor make it a great addition to relishes, chutneys, and dressings.
