Allspice

A spice, also know as Jamaican Pepper and (in France) as poivre giroflee, that is ground from the unripe berries of Pimenta officinalis, a tree which grows in the Caribbean, Honduras, and Mexico.  Allspice has a strong odor of nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves, which is why it is sometimes mistaken for a mixture of different spices.  It is used to season sausages, salt beef, pork, pickles, sauces, soused herrings, stuffings, and even Christmas cake.
