can u give me spices from the virgin island?

Answer 1

Spice Trade. Enlivening the imagination like these pungent plant parts do food, spices epitomize the exotic, sunny tropics. In the days of the Spice Trade, peppercorns were worth their weight in gold. And it was the incredible value of the cloves filling the hold of Magellan's only returning ship that ensured the financial success of his historic voyage around the world. New spices and routes motivated Columbus to set sail to the East Indies in the first place-- hence the West Indies name when he accidentally discovered a new land.

Except for saffron where countless tiny crocus stigmas must be plucked by hand, spices are now commonplace, inexpensive and widely grown (and annatto oil is used for saffron). Once only grown in China, ginger is a major product of Jamaica, and widely diffused, via East Indian chutneys and curries, throughout Caribbean cooking. Now nutmeg is synonymous with Grenada, called the Isle of Spice. Conversely, as mentioned, the chile pepper was transported to Africa for cultivation.

Nutmeg. One of the spices, nutmeg, was brought to the Caribbean when an English sea captain brought the tree from Indonesia to Grenada (an important producer of nutmeg today). From a tall, fragrant, tropical evergreen tree and found in local markets, the best is the nut's fresh shell with its threads of bright scarlet mace still clinging to the outside. Rum drinks favor a dusting of nutmeg, so much more flavorful when freshly grated.
