The beginnings of this deliciously complex spice originate in Montreal, Canada (big surprise), where Schwartz’s, a Hebrew Delicatessen established in 1928, is credited with its creation. During the 1940s and 1950s, Morris “The Shadow” Sherman, a broilerman at Schwartz’s, began adding the pickling spices used in the deli’s smoked meats to his own rib and liver steaks. Soon customers began asking for the spice on their steaks as well, and the spice was eventually copied by many other Montreal delis and steakhouses due to its popularity.
