  • Grains of paradise are members of the ginger family but are most closely related to cardamom.
  • Also called melegueta pepper, these spices are famous for imparting a thick, black-pepper flavor, and are a popular ingredient in traditional dishes of North and West Africa.
  • This spice was used in Europe much the same way black pepper is used and it was also added to beverages like beer and wine. 
  • Grains of paradise provide a warm, spicy bite with slightly bitter overtones.
  • With flavors reminiscent of cardamom and coriander, grains of paradise make a great substitute for black pepper in soups and salads.
  • Grains of Paradise seeds are sweet-spicy but buttery, with a hint of lavender and juniper.
  • Add Grains of Paradise to the black pepper in your grinder to add depth and flavor.
