Notes
Where possible use fresh ingredients for more clean and natural flavor
To dial heat up or down adjust for seeds and veins. For milder jerk paste remove seeds and veins
Habanero is a good substitute for scotch bonnet
Texture can be tweaked based on liquids (oil, soy, vinegar) to solids (thyme, onions, scallions) ratio. For more of a paste consistency dial down the liquids
Use a coffee grinder to grind the pimento seeds into all-spice. If no grinder available then use a quality ground all-spice mix.
