In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the soaked salted meat, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped pimento peppers, and thyme sprigs. Add about 1/2 cup of water.

Add the breadfruit chunks to the pot. Pour in the two cans of coconut milk and the remaining 1/2 cup of water. Stir well to combine.

Bring the mixture back to a simmer, then add the chopped dasheen leaves (or spinach) and the whole scotch bonnet pepper. Stir gently.

Cover the pot and let it simmer gently for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the breadfruit is tender and the sauce has thickened considerably, becoming oily. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper if needed. Remove the thyme sprigs and the scotch bonnet pepper before serving. The scotch bonnet can be served whole on the side for those who like extreme heat.
