Best 4 Caribbean Calypso Hot Sauce Recipes

CARIBBEAN CALYPSO HOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Stem and seed habanero peppers, wearing gloves.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Combine habanero peppers, onion, garlic, lime juice, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, tequila, salt, mustard powder, and allspice in a blender; puree until smooth.

CARIBBEAN HOT PEPPER SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Put the peppers and salt in a food processor and pulse until the peppers are minced finely. Scrape down the sides of the bowl from time to time.
• Once the peppers are chopped pretty finely, let the processor keep whirling and pour just enough of the vinegar through the chute to moisten the peppers and give it the consistency of a thick sauce.
• Pour the hot sauce into sterilized glass bottles or jars and cover with airtight lids. Store the finished product in a cool place or in your refrigerator until the flavors meld together nicely. Or you can place your bottles of pepper sauce in the sun for two to three days to ripen quickly and then store in a cool place. If there's no sun where you are, let the pepper sauce cure for at least five days before use so that the flavors can develop.

CARIBBEAN CREOLE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium heavy-based saucepan, heat oil over low heat. Add onions, green pepper, garlic and chilies; saute until the peppers are soft.
• Add salt, pepper and tomatoes. Cook about 10 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally.
• Add tomato paste and wine and simmer, stirring occasionally.
• Serve hot.

JAMAICAN CALYPSO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Drain the juice from the pineapple chunks into a zip-lock bag big enough to hold the chicken. Reserve the pineapple to add later. To the juice add rum, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, curry powder, garlic, ginger, cloves and red pepper flakes. Stir or mush up the bag to blend.
• Add the chicken, turning to coat well. Place in refrigerator skin side down to marinade for 3-6 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375*. Saving the marinade, remove the chicken and place skin side up in a shallow baking dish.
• Bake, uncovered, basting often with the pan juices and leftover marinade for 30-35 minutes.
• Add the reserved pineapple chunks and mandarin oranges to the pan and bake 5-10 minutes more - until the chicken is no longer pink near the bone.
• Serve the chicken with pan juices basted over, along with the fruit. I like to serve this over rice (especially coconut rice). You can garnish with sliced lime for presentation.
