Production
(File:AllspiceBowl.JPG|thumb|right|{{center|Whole allspice berries}})Allspice is the dried fruit of the Pimenta dioica plant. The fruits are picked when green and unripe, and are traditionally dried in the sun. When dry, they are brown and resemble large, smooth peppercorns. Fresh leaves are similar in texture to bay leaves and similarly used in cooking. Leaves and wood are often used for smoking meats where allspice is a local crop.Care must be taken during drying to ensure that volatile oil, such as eugenol, remains in the end products.WEB,weblink Consolidated federal laws of canada, Food and Drug Regulations, Branch, Legislative Services, laws.justice.gc.ca, en, 2018-07-19,Uses
{{Cookbook}}Allspice is one of the most important ingredients of Jamaican cuisine. Under the name pimento, it is used in Jamaican jerk seasoning, and traditionally its wood was used to smoke jerk in Jamaica. In the West Indies, an allspice liqueur is produced under the name "pimento dram". In Mexican cuisine, it is used in many dishes, where it is known as pimienta gorda.Diana Kennedy, The Essential Cuisines of Mexico, 2009, {{isbn|030758772X}}, passimAllspice is also indispensable in Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly in the Levant, where it is used to flavour a variety of stews and meat dishes, as well as tomato sauce.Diane Kochilas, My Greek Table, 2018, {{isbn|1250166373}}, p. 22 In Arab cuisine, for example, many main dishes use allspice as the only spice.{{citation needed|date=October 2023}}In Northern European and North American cooking, it is an ingredient in commercial sausage preparations and curry powders, and in pickling.In the United States, it is used mostly in desserts, but it is also responsible for giving Cincinnati-style chili its distinctive aroma and flavor. Allspice is commonly used in Great Britain, and appears in many dishes. In Portugal, whole allspice is used heavily in traditional stews cooked in large terracotta pots in the Azores islands.Allspice is also one of the most used spices in Polish cuisine (used in most dishes, soups and stews) and is commonly known under the name English herb () since Britain was its major exporter.Allspice is an important part of Swedish and Finnish cuisine. Whole allspice is used to flavour soups as well as stews such as Karelian hot pot. Ground allspice is also used in various dishes, such as minced meat sauces, Swedish meatballs, lutefisk and different cakes.WEB, Mitä eroa on mustapippurilla ja maustepippurilla?,weblink 2022-09-09, iltalehti.fi, fi,Cultivation, trade and origin
File:Pimenta dioica (Allspice) W IMG 2432.jpg|thumb|right|Pimenta dioica leaves in GoaGoaThe allspice tree, classified as an evergreen shrub, can reach {{convert|10|â|18|m|ft|abbr=on}} in height. Allspice can be a small, scrubby tree, quite similar to the bay laurel in size and form. It can also be a tall canopy tree, sometimes grown to provide shade for coffee trees planted underneath it. It can be grown outdoors in the tropics and subtropics with normal garden soil and watering. Smaller plants can be killed by frost; larger plants are more tolerant. It adapts well to container culture and can be kept as a houseplant or in a greenhouse.Christopher Columbus became aware of allspice on his second New World voyage, and the plant soon became part of European diets. At the time, it was found only on the island of Jamaica, where birds readily spread the seeds. To protect the pimenta trade, Jamaican growers guarded against export of the plant. Many attempts at growing the pimenta from seeds were reported, but all failed. Eventually, passage through the avian digestive tract, whether due to the acidity or the elevated temperature, was found to be essential for germinating the seeds,JOURNAL, Roberts, E. H., 1988, Temperature and seed germination,weblink Symposia of the Society for Experimental Biology, 42, 109â132, 0081-1386, 3077854, and successful germination elsewhere was enabled. Today, pimenta grows in Tonga and in Hawaii, where it has become naturalized on Kaua{{okina}}i and Maui.JOURNAL, Lorence, David H., Flynn, Timothy W., Wagner, Warren L., Contributions to the Flora of Hawai'i III, Bishop Museum Occasional Papers, 41, 19â58, 1 March 1995,weblink 0893-1348, 12 December 2009, Jamaica remains the leading source of the plant, although some is grown by other countries in the same region.WEB,weblink About.com Greek Food â Allspice, Nancy Gaifyllia, 26 June 2011,weblink" title="web.archive.org/web/20110707075128weblink">weblink 7 July 2011, live,See also
