June’s RawSpiceBar Spice Journey takes us to Jamaica.
Recipes - Chili Banana Fritters, Mango Corn Salsa, And Jamaican Jerk Fish Tacos.
June's Jamaican Inspired Spice Blends:
Mango Salsa Spices
Use these spices to create a spicy Jamaican style mango salsa that is a beautiful blend of sweet and spicy and pairs perfectly with a jerk dish of fish, shrimp or chicken. This spice blend can be used on other tropical fruits or light, citrusy salad.
Jamaican Jerk
Perfect for summer grilling season, jerk refers to the preparation of meat or seafood with a wet or dry rub. This rub has African origins, while thyme, nutmeg and spicy chiles found in the Caribbean were included over time. Use this blend to create a jerk paste for marinating chops, ribs, chicken, shrimp or kebabs.
I love Jamaican food, especially Jerk Chicken, so this probably my favourite RawSpiceBar yet! Jamaican cuisine is as varied and eclectic as the people who created it. Indigenous people, combined with immigrants from China, England, Spain, India and West Africa have each played an influential role on both the culture and cuisine.Unfortunately, I got a duplicate spice and am missing the Jamaican Sweet Spices. If I had received double the Jamaican Jerk I wouldn't have minded that much. A great month otherwise!
