Directions
This spicy condiment is a common Haitian accompaniment to meat and fish dishes, adding some of the island kick that is such a notable component of Caribbean cuisine. The Scotch bonnet is in the same family as the well-known habanero chili that is common in the Yucatan of Mexico, but it is a different pod type (although both are blistering hot, so be careful when handling them!).
