Direction
- Combine all ingredients in a blender until liquefied. Put in jars and refrigerate. Use to marinate meat, fish or poultry for 3 hours or overnight in the refrigerator. Brush marinade thickly over individual pieces.
- The marinade can also be used as a sort of pepper sauce for meat that has been jerked, or you can boil it with 3/4 cup of vinegar, let it simmer for a few minutes, bottle and refrigerate for daily use.
