Total Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 Scotch bonnet peppers
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 6 scallions
  • 1/2 cup allspice berries
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend smooth. Refrigerate until use.

Notes

No Scotch bonnet peppers available? Opt for habaneros instead. They have the same high heat with slightly less fruitiness.
