--><!-- Aframomum melegueta Also called “Grains of Paradise,” “Guinea grains,” and “Melegueta pepper,” these small seeds look like cardamom but have a character all their own. The spice is native to West Africa and during medieval times was used to flavor food. It has also been used as a pepper substitute. While it does have a peppery zing, it also has notes of citrus and an “earthy” pine aroma.
