How to Substitute Jamaican Curry Powder:

Like all curry powders, Jamaican curry powder is a mix of various flavors. There’s nobody single formula for it, however, most mixes contain cumin, coriander, mustard, anise, fenugreek, allspice, and turmeric.

Jamaican curry powder is not quite the same as curry powder you’ll regularly find in the normal U.S. grocery stores on the grounds that it contains more turmeric (which is the reason Jamaican dishes are regularly yellow) and more allspice in contrast with different flavors.

Subbing Scotch Bonnet Peppers:

• Scotch hat peppers are the other Jamaican fixing I couldn’t find without any problem. They are extremely fiery yet additionally somewhat sweet and fruity.
• To substitute scotch hat peppers, dice a red chime pepper VERY finely. This impersonates the pleasantness of scotch hoods.
• Add a fiery pepper you *can* find. Jalapeno is a decent choice.
• Up the zest level. Scotch hats are spicier than jalapenos. A spot of cayenne pepper and extremely hot sauce are a decent method for expanding the hotness.

Is Jamaican Curry Chicken Spicy?

• Indeed, this formula is hot, basically contrasted with the greater part of different curries on this site. I’d put it at a 3 or 4 out of 5, with 1 being gentle and 5 making them mop your temple.
• In case you are touchy to flavor, I propose toning down the cayenne and hot sauce to begin.
• If you venerate hot food, you’ll fall head over heels for this. You should even add MORE hot sauce.
