Wet Jerk Rub

Yields: 4 cups

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 bunches (about 15) green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup ginger root, finely diced
  • 3 Scotch bonnet peppers, stemmed and finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup peanut oil
  • 5 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 3 freshly ground bay leaves
  • 2 teaspoons freshly ground allspice
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon freshly ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • Juice of 1 lime
Combine all the ingredients into a thick, chunky paste. The mixture will keep in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator for several months.

Most Jamaicans grind their spices by hand in a mortar and pestle. The whole spices tend to retain more aromatic oils in them and therefore more of a natural pungency. To save time, you can pulverize the spices in a spice grinder or coffee mill, and then add them to the other ingredients.
