i can only abide vulgar thyme. even di big leaf one weh dem ha (i think that's actually called Jamaican thyme) the flavour is fleeting.

wah really pimento good fah sides jerk? </div></div>


just the aroma alone when its cooking is worth it..

but what do you mean the flavour doesn't last? </div></div>
i love the aroma of thyme too, and i find the vulgaris one the most pleasing. lemon thyme i don't like the flavour. and teh Jamaican thyme, yes, it boil out and get mushy, but you smell it for a bit then the flavour is gone.

i use thyme in soup, ackee and saltfish, stews and curries.

paprika i find gives a subtle flavour to the dressing i use in potato salad. the colouring is nice, too.

browning gives a richer flavour to meat. is the sugar in it, i think. i used to colour meat with soya sauce until i discovered browning.

you should try red onion. the taste is not as objectionable.

just occur to me that them sell ground pimento as allspice and use it in baking.

Re: spices....

I have never purchased the ground pimento. I am afraid of the bitterness.
