A CLOSER LOOK
A little more about Lemon Ginger Jerk.
What’s in the bottle, what to expect, and how to use it.
What is Lemon Ginger Jerk?
A Caribbean-style hot sauce built on fermented Scotch bonnet peppers, fresh ginger, fresh lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, and a chef-curated jerk seasoning blend from Spicewalla. 4 out of 10 heat.
What does Lemon Ginger Jerk taste like?
Bright lemon up front, warming ginger and traditional jerk spices (allspice, thyme, cinnamon, smoked paprika) in the middle, clean Scotch bonnet heat on the finish. Caribbean character without the soy-sauce weight of most jerk sauces.
What's the difference between this and traditional jerk sauces?
Most American-made jerk sauces use soy sauce for deep savory depth. Lemon Ginger Jerk uses fresh lemon juice and apple cider vinegar as the acid base, with fresh ginger amplifying the brightness. The result works better on summer food: grilled fish, white meat, ceviche, cocktails.
What are Scotch bonnet peppers?
A Caribbean chili pepper, fruity and floral, with heat in the same range as habanero (100,000 to 350,000 SHU). The traditional jerk pepper.
Is Lemon Ginger Jerk vegan or gluten-free?
Yes.
Is it good as a marinade?
Yes. This is the sauce in the ONIMA lineup specifically built for marinades. Brush on chicken, pork, or lobster 30 minutes to a few hours before grilling, then a fresh pass right before pulling off the heat.
