Good evening MF Products blog readers today we're going to be looking at the different ways you can use MF Jerk Seasoning so, without further ado let's get into this.

Whenever you guys hear jerk, you automatically think of chicken, being grilled, and smoked served with rice and peas or maybe just salad. Well, jerk seasoning has a lot more uses than just for chicken. It can be used in beef, pork, and fish recipes to add that different dynamic to your dish. The MF Products team decide to see if we could spice up non-Jamaican dishes with the use of MF Jerk Seasoning and we were astonished with the results.

 

The first way you could use MF Jerk Seasoning is in your scrambled eggs. This may sound ridiculous however adding that jerk flavour to your eggs will spruce your palette in the morning nicely. The eggs mixed with the variety of spices surprisingly bode well together to create something quite special

 

The second way you can use jerk seasoning is with guacamole. This is especially great for parties and gatherings. Simply add some jerk seasoning to your guacamole for an amazing dip. This fusion of a Mexican masterpiece with Jamaican royalty, is sure to bring an exotic combination to a simple dip dish. If you want to go all out Jamaican then serve this delicious dip with some Water Crackers or maybe even some fried plantain.

Lastly, you can use MF Jerk Seasoning with your tuna, especially in sandwiches. I’m sure many of you are used to having tuna with mayo and salad, but isn’t that BORING? Don’t you wish for something more exciting in your sandwiches? Well look no further, with the addition o Jerk seasoning, your tuna sandwiches will be tasting divine.

 

 

Where did it come from

 

The cuisine had its origins with the Taino, who developed the jerk method and later taught it to African slaves, who in turn adapted it in creating jerk chicken. The word jerk reportedly stems from the Spanish charqui. This means dried strips of meat similar to the modern-day jerky. Jerk is a style of cooking native to Jamaica, in which the meat is then dry-rubbed or wet marinated with a hot spice mixture called Jamaican jerk spice. The seasoning typically consists of a marinade or paste that includes at least pimento (which is often called allspice) and scotch bonnet peppers (also known as habanero).

And that concludes it guys, three delicious ways to use MF Jerk Seasoning  We hope you enjoyed today's blog.

Today we will be making our very own MF Soursop smoothie with bananas and almonds. We chose bananas due it’s alpha and beta carotene content when consumed by the body, this then turns in vitamin A.

Benefits of pimento (also known as allspice).

Before we get into the benefits of pimento, at MF Products UK we believe we must look at a foods history first and learn about its origin. So, without further ado let’s look into pimento which is also known as allspice. The pimento tree is indigenous to the Caribbean Islands. It was found growing in Jamaica by early Spanish explorers who were quite impressed with its tantalising taste and aroma of the berries and the leaves. Pimento trees were then later discovered in Cuba and were presumed to have been taken there by migrant birds who had eaten the berries. They have also been found in Mexico, but it is Jamaica that has the longest history, having been in continuous production since the tree was identified in about the year 1509. The name Pimento originated from the Spanish word "pimienta" which meant ‘peppercorn’. To most English-speaking people the tree is called "pimento" and the berries "allspice". The name allspice originated from the widespread n...
