Caribbean food and drink supplier Grace Foods UK has launched a new line – Jamaican Honey Jerk Seasoning – which brings together the savoury, fragrant and spicy taste of Jamaican jerk seasoning with the sweetness of real Jamaican honey.
The seasoning is said to be ideal for meat, fish, seafood, tofu and veggie dishes on the grill. It comes in 330g jars and is rolling out in Sainsbury’s and Tesco stores with an RRP of £2.95.
Kimberley Lue Lim, Head of Marketing for Grace Foods UK, said: “The team at Grace Foods UK is really proud of the Grace Jamaican Honey Jerk Seasoning. People around the world love our Jamaican jerk sauces and seasonings because their traditional recipes are developed and made in Jamaica. Foodies like the heat they add to food, but we thought it was time to launch a milder alternative, which is how we came up with the idea of Grace Jamaican Honey Jerk Seasoning.
“The mild sweetness combined with a very slight hint of spice allows us to broaden the appeal of our classic jerk sauces and seasonings and hopefully reach a wider audience while introducing them to Jamaican cuisine at the same time. For families who are keen to introduce new tastes and flavours from around the world, our honey jerk seasoning is the answer, offering a deliciously, versatile ingredient that all the family, regardless of age, will love. And it is the perfect addition to any barbecue and really does offer a great alternative to hotter sauces and seasonings.”
