AuthorNote: Africa's Berber spice meets the jerk seasonings of Jamaica, but without the chiles (you can add them if you wish). Use this blend with yams, tomatoes, greens, and beans. It's a BBQ rub, and with salt, a dry brine. Grinding whole spices with a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle gives you bolder flavors, but ground spices can be used, too.
