What is Jerk?
"Jerk refers to a traditional Jamaican method of seasoning and cooking meats, vegetables or tofu. Rooted in ingredients from Jamaica’s fertile green landscape, jerk consists of an exotic blend of scallions, onions, scotch bonnet peppers, salt, thyme, allspice, black pepper and many other spices. Savoury, fragrant, and tenaciously spicy, jerk is a must have for that burst of flavour and a touch of heat." - source gracefoods.com
History of Jerk
"In the 1700’s, a group of Africans who became known as Maroons combined African meat cooking techniques with a mix of Jamaican spices. Their cooking style evolved to what we know today as jerk. The jerk name has 2 possible origins: either from the Peruvian word “charqui” for dried meat or the practice of jerking (poking) holes in meat to fill with spices prior to cooking." - source gracefoods.com
