How to Make Jerk Seasoning
- Combine 2 tablespoons allspice berries, 1 tablespoon ground nutmeg, 1 tablespoon black peppercorns, and 2 tablespoons fresh thyme sprigs in a spice grinder. Grind to a fine powder.
- Add 4 cloves garlic (minced), 1 inch ginger (grated), 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon ground Scotch bonnet pepper (or less, to taste), 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 tablespoon dried oregano to the spice powder.
- Mix thoroughly. For immediate use, proceed to your recipe. To store for later, omit the garlic and ginger. Store the remaining spice blend in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Add freshly minced garlic and grated ginger just before using.
