I grabbed this quote from a spice website:
I know the current trend is to crank up the B&W Pepper, but what about cranking up the Allspice and allowing it to provide for some of the Black Pepper nature?
Hang with me as this takes awhile...
I've noticed that for any 200 grams of flour based recipe into which I've added Clove, it becomes cloying at above 0.20 grams. But the 'Dustin' recipe as seen on Glen And Friends Cooking uses 0.30 grams when scaled to 200 grams of flour, plus the Dustin Recipe also uses 0.30 grams of Allspice.
The question becomes: How much Allspice must one add while restricting Clove to o.20 grams, whereby to achieve the exact same 'nominal' level of Eugenol oil as for the Dustin Recipe?
As I've posted before, Clove contains 180,000 ppm Eugenol, and Allspice contains 36,000 ppm Eugenol.
Dustin's recipe contains as to Eugenol (on a relative basis):
0.30 x 180,000 + 0.30 x 36,000 = 64,800
So we must match this 64,800
With trial and error I quickly discovered that:
0.20 x 180,000 + 0.80 x 36,000 = 64,800 (Bingo!!!)
The answer is to add 0.80 grams of Allspice. Which is a lot!
And at that high level it must deliver some level of noticeable Black Pepper equivalent.
Therefore, a fully 100% 40 ounce bag compliant recipe using 0.80 grams of Allspice and 0.20 grams of Clove might look something like this:
Allspice offers a complex medley of flavors that account for its name. It got the name allspice because so many spices seem to show up in its flavor profile, including black pepper.
