1
Combine the first 9 ingredients.
2
It will have great flavor, but very little heat at this point. To spice it up, add whatever hot peppers you like. Personally, I like to add one half habanero or scotch bonnet along with one half jalapeno for some decent heat and flavor. If you don't want it too hot, add one half to one whole jalapeno. All I do is cut off the stem and finely mince the peppers, seeds and all. Even better is to freeze the peppers and use a microplane to grate them into a fine mash. Please wear rubber gloves when handling the diced peppers and do not rub your nose or eyes!
3
Another flavor variant is to use lemon juice instead of lime juice.
4
Letting the mix sit for an hour will allow the flavors to meld better especially if you add hot peppers.
