About the Scotch Bonnet Pepper

The Scotch bonnet, known by various monikers such as bonney peppers or Caribbean red peppers, stands as a distinctive variety of chili pepper.

Its nomenclature is derived from a striking resemblance to the traditional Scottish tam o’ shanter hat.

This fiery and flavorful pepper has carved a niche for itself in the culinary world, with its unique appearance and robust taste leaving an indelible mark on various cuisines.

Beyond their intense heat, these peppers offer a complex flavor profile, featuring fruity and sweet undertones that contribute to their popularity in Caribbean and West African cuisines.

It is ubiquitous in West Africa as well as the Caribbean. Like the closely related habanero, Scotch bonnets have a heat rating of 100,000–350,000 Scoville units.For comparison, most jalapeño peppers have a heat rating of 2,500 to 8,000 on the Scoville scale.

In Caribbean culinary traditions, Scotch bonnets are a cornerstone ingredient, contributing not only heat but also depth of flavor to iconic dishes such as jerk chicken, pepper pot soup, and various hot sauces.

The pepper’s versatility extends to home kitchens worldwide, where adventurous cooks incorporate it into salsas, marinades, and other recipes to infuse a bold and unforgettable kick.

How to Flavour

These peppers are used to flavor many different dishes and cuisines worldwide and are often used in hot sauces and condiments. The Scotch bonnet has a sweeter flavor and stouter shape, distinct from its habanero relative with which it is often confused, and gives jerk dishes (pork/chicken) and other Caribbean dishes their unique flavor. Scotch bonnets are mostly used in Maldivian, West African, Antiguan, Kittitian/Nevisian, Anguilan, Dominican, St. Lucian, Martinican, Guadeloupean, St Vincentian, Grenadian, Trinidadian, Jamaican, Barbadian, Guyanese, Surinamese, Haitian and Cayman cuisines and pepper sauces, though they often show up in other Caribbean recipes. It is also used in Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama for Caribbean-styled recipes such as rice and beans, rondón, saus, beef patties, and ceviche. Scotch bonnet is also prominent in the cuisine of the Maldives where it is called githeyo mirus.
