If you’re looking to bring authentic Jamaican flavours into your kitchen, Rose’s Herbal Bliss offers an array of herbs and spices that can make your dishes sing. Whether you’re new to Caribbean cuisine or a seasoned chef, using Jamaican ingredients like pimento, scotch bonnet, and jackfruit seed powder will give your meals a rich depth and complexity that’s simply unforgettable. Here are some of our favourite ways to cook with Rose’s Herbal Bliss products.
1. Season Your Meat with Pimento for a True Jamaican Flavour
Pimento, also known as allspice, is a staple in Jamaican cooking. Its warm, peppery notes are essential in traditional jerk seasoning, and it’s perfect for marinating meats. Try mixing pimento with garlic, thyme, scotch bonnet, and a bit of oil to create a quick and delicious marinade for chicken, pork, or tofu. Let it sit for a few hours before cooking to let the flavours soak in.
2. Make Rice and Peas with a Twist Using Dried Herbs
Our dried thyme and scotch bonnet add authentic flavour to a classic rice and peas dish. Once your beans are nearly cooked, add a few sprigs of thyme, a dash of scotch bonnet, and a bit of coconut milk to the pot. This creates a fragrant, spicy-sweet dish that’s the perfect side for any meal.
3. Add Jackfruit Seed Powder to Smoothies and Stews
Jackfruit seed powder is a versatile, nutrient-dense ingredient. Add a spoonful to your morning smoothie for a mild, nutty flavour with extra fibre and protein. For a savoury option, mix it into soups and stews to thicken them naturally, adding a subtle richness that pairs well with spices like ginger and turmeric.
4. Spruce Up Veggies with Herbal Seasoning
Roast your vegetables with a sprinkle of our custom herbal seasoning blend. Try it on carrots, potatoes, or even cauliflower to bring a new depth of flavour to your usual veggie side dishes. Simply toss with oil and seasoning before roasting, and enjoy the herbal aroma that fills your kitchen.
