Jamaican Jerk Paste image

I noticed a lot of jerk seasoning recipes but none for paste so posted this for ZWT III. The recipe is from Pepperfool. I love the contrast the hot chilli gives to the sweetness of the spices.

Time 5m

Yield 1/2 cup

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 -10 habaneros, chopped fine or 6 -10 hot chili, pepppers
1 onion, chopped fine
3 -4 scallions, chopped fine
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

  • Blend ingredients in a food processor or grind into a paste. Refrigerate unused portions.
  • NB/ For a variation try adding a little dark rum to the mix and double the sugar using brown instead of table sugar. For more of an East Indies taste replace, in equal amounts, thyme with curry powder, cinnamon with cumin, and nutmeg with paprika.
