Carribean Scotch Bonnet Nectar Recipe

Carribean Scotch Bonnet Nectar

From busmamawilliams 18 years ago

My Jamaican husband & his best friend who is Haitian swear this is the best hot sauce they've ever had! Beware....it's HOT!!

10 to 12 scotch bonnet peppers (you can substitute habanero peppers if you can't find real scotch bonnets); seeded & minced (**be sure to wear gloves when working with the peppers, as the pepper oil stays on skin for hours & burns!) shopping list
1/2 cup peeled diced carrots shopping list
1/2 cup peeled diced fresh ripe mango,peach, nectarine or papaya shopping list
3 Tablespoons minced shallots shopping list
1 cup red wine vinegar shopping list
1/4 cup fresh lime juice shopping list
2 cloves garlic; minced shopping list
2 Tablespoons brown sugar shopping list

Place all ingredients in a non-reactive saucepan & cook over medium heat. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally & lowering the heat as the mixture begins to thicken.
Remove from heat & allow sauce to cool to room temperature. Transfer to a blender & blend until mixture is smooth.
If refrigerated, the condiment should keep for several weeks.
