Badia Allspice Whole Bag 0.5 oz Pack of 2
Whole allspice berries — pimienta dulce — deliver the warm, slightly sweet, toasted note that anchors Caribbean and Cuban slow-cooked dishes. Whole berries hold their oils longer than ground and release flavor gradually in simmering liquids.
Common Uses: picadillo, ajiaco, carne guisada, fricasé de pollo, marinade bases, bean pots, and braising liquids where the berries are added whole and fished out before serving.
Pantry Role: base seasoning, brine/marinade base.
Common In: Cuban, Caribbean, and pan-Latin kitchens; also standard in Jamaican jerk blends and Puerto Rican sofritos.
Pairs With: bay leaf, comino, black peppercorns, garlic, oregano, naranja agria, and tomato sauce in long-cooked stews.
Two 0.5 oz bags ship nationwide — small format for cooks who prefer to grind fresh as needed.
