This sauce was a fun one to make. Inspired by Jamaican food. I wanted to make a sauce that poured more like a hot sauce than a marinade. Most jerk "sauces" are more of a paste consistency. Not really what I wanted. So, I started a ferment. Yellow Scotch bonnet peppers, carrot and garlic. 4% brine method. And I let it ferment for two weeks. After ten days I racked out some of the brine and mixed my spices with this brine. The spices sat for a few days to develop flavors. I used this brine along with the fermented Scotch bonnet pepper mix, brown sugar, vinegar and xanthan gum to make a very complex jerk style hot sauce. Heat forward with a wave of spices that mellow as the heat dissipates.
