Allspice is the berry from the Pimenta dioica plant. To make the spice, the berries are harvested while still green, then dried. Allspice is native to the Caribbean, especially Jamacia, and is used in jerk seasonings there. It’s also used in Middle Eastern, Arab and North African cuisines, and is a common baking ingredient in European and American traditions.
