Haha, I hear you! Scotch Bonnet peppers can definitely pack a fiery punch that might be too much for some folks. But don't worry, you can still enjoy the delicious flavors of Jamaican Peas Soup without setting your taste buds on fire! The great thing about cooking is that you can always adjust the recipe to suit your preferences. If you're not a fan of spicy food, you can simply leave out the Scotch Bonnet pepper or use a milder chili pepper instead. A little bit of black pepper or a pinch of cayenne can add some warmth without the intense heat. And let's be real, the kidney beans are the real stars of this dish anyway! They give the soup that hearty, comforting texture and depth of flavor. Plus, they're packed with protein and fiber, so you can feel good about indulging in a big, cozy bowl. I know it might seem like all the best Jamaican dishes are spicy, but that's not always the case. There are plenty of mild and savory options out there, like our famous Ackee and Saltfish or a classic Jamaican Patty. It's all about finding the flavors that work for you! So, don't let the Scotch Bonnet scare you away from trying Jamaican Peas Soup. With a few tweaks, you can create a version that's just as delicious but much more "white people friendly." 😉 And who knows, maybe one day you'll work up the courage to try a little bit of that Scotch Bonnet heat. Baby steps, my friend. Baby steps!
