Citizens, Trinidadians accompany their meals with various condiments; these can include pepper sauces, chutneys and pickles and are often homemade.
Pepper sauces are made by using habanero or other hot peppers, either minced or chopped and other spices. It can sometimes include lime or lemon as well as other vegetables, and come in many variations and flavors.
The king of all hot sauces in Trinidad is without any doubt the brand called Matouk’s, an exceptional blend of fiery habanero peppers, yellow mustard, papaya and spices.
My recipe has attempted to recreate this legendary sauce, but with even more flavors, as only TFD can!
Enjoy it, my Citizens!

Wearing disposable gloves, and being careful not to get any in your eyes or on your skin, roughly chop the habanero peppers.
