    3 Habaneros, stems & seeds removed, chopped
    10 scallions, chopped
    1/2 C. chopped onion
    4 garlic cloves, chopped
    4 bay leaves, crushed
    1 (3-in)ginger, peeled, chopped
    1/3 C. fresh thyme

    Recipe



    Roast pimento berries in dry skillet until aromatic, about 2 min. Remove and crush to a powder in a mortar or spice mill. Add pimento powder and all remaining ingredients to a food processor and blend with enough water to make a paste or sauce. Store in refrigerator. Keeps a month or more. Makes 2-3 cups.

    Chicken wings make great jerk appetizers. Cut off tips and marinate in jerk seasoning overnight. Place on a rack and bake for 30-40 min. in a 350F. oven, basting frequently with marinate.

    For a 3-4 lb. pork roast, rub with jerk paste and marinate overnight. Cook on smoker or grill or bake in the oven. Let roast come to room temperature. Place in a 400F. oven and immediately reduce the heat to 325F. Bake for 1 hour 45 minutes or to an internal temperature of 180.
