This 60g pack is useful for seasoning meats, seafood, rice dishes, soups, stews, sauces, gravies, marinades, vegetables, and traditional Trini recipes.

It helps build flavor quickly while keeping your pantry flexible.
Caribbean Pimento Seasoning from Quite Grande
Quite Grande products are made for people who enjoy bold Caribbean flavor, home-style cooking, and traditional island ingredients. Anisa’s Pimento Powder is a practical seasoning for anyone who wants pimento flavor without needing fresh pimento peppers available at all times.
Use this pimento powder when preparing stewed chicken, curry chicken, fish, shrimp, beef, pork, turkey, rice and peas, pelau, soups, lentils, beans, vegetables, sauces, dips, dressings, and marinades. It pairs well with garlic, onion, chadon beni, thyme, green seasoning, roucou, coconut milk, lime, pepper sauce, curry powder, geera, and other Caribbean pantry staples.
How to Use Anisa’s Pimento Powder
For meats and seafood, sprinkle a small amount over the food before cooking or mix it into your marinade. It works well for baking, grilling, frying, roasting, stewing, air frying, and BBQ preparation.
For soups, stews, sauces, and gravies, add pimento powder while building the flavor base with onion, garlic, herbs, oil, green seasoning, or other seasonings. Let it cook into the dish so the flavor spreads evenly.
For rice dishes, add a small amount while cooking pelau, rice and peas, fried rice, vegetable rice, or one-pot meals. It helps bring a Caribbean-style seasoning note to simple grains and sides.
For dry rubs and seasoning blends, mix pimento powder with garlic powder, onion powder, herbs, salt, black pepper, paprika, curry, geera, or other spices to create your own custom Caribbean seasoning mix.

Why Add Pimento Powder to Your Pantry
Anisa’s Pimento Powder is useful because it gives you pimento flavor in a pantry-friendly form. Fresh pimento peppers can be hard to find outside the Caribbean, and they do not always last long. A dry powder gives you a convenient option that is ready when you need it.
This seasoning is especially practical for Caribbean diaspora cooking. It helps bring familiar Trini flavor into home kitchens abroad and supports traditional recipes that depend on aromatic seasoning. Whether you are making curry chicken, stew fish, pelau, soups, rice dishes, or sauces, pimento powder helps create a more complete Caribbean flavor base.
It also works well for quick everyday meals. Add it to weeknight chicken, roasted vegetables, fried rice, seafood, or a simple sauce when you want more flavor without chopping fresh peppers. Keep it with your seasonings, dry rubs, and pantry staples so it is ready for regular cooking.
