Spice Up Your Life

Spice up your life with delicious flavors from around the world, and explore new recipes with spices that you love.  Each attendee will leave with a sample of the month's spice and a couple of recipes to try at home.  This month we explore allspice.  Allspice is a spice made from the dried berries of a plant known as Pimenta dioica, which is a member of the myrtle family. The flavor of allspice brings to mind cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and pepper. Allspice is used in Caribbean, Middle Eastern, and Latin American cuisines, among others.
