Grains of Paradise, Whole

Aboriginal to the coasts of Africa, Grains of Paradise are a unique spice. Also known as Melegueta Pepper or Koratima, these corns come from the same family as cardamom. The grains have a sweet, coconut flavour with notes of allspice and clove.

Grains of Paradise are a superb alternative to black pepper. The complex African spice is great with lamb, chicken, rice and vegetables. Try adding it to the African classic Babotie or add to your gin and tonic!
