Thanks for the tips I will have to wait for my scotch bonnets though they
are currently about 5 inches tall.  My Piquins are finally turning red
today, I thought they would never turn.

Their hot sauces use Scotch bonnets and are often mustard laced or tropical
fruit puree based.

Here's some ideas. If they aren't quite right, think about guava, mango,
banana and/or allspice as flavours.
