After reading this, for some reason, the phrase “cryogenic hellfire” lives rent-free in my brain.
My new recipe book:
A Taste of Fire and Ice.
Just don’t expect the sequel to be released anytime soon.
We mammals, and only we mammals, have nerve receptors capsaicin triggers. Birds don’t have such receptors. They happily chow peppers and poop the whole seeds all over.
Meanwhile, we mammals, who are supposed to hate the heat because we grind the seeds to death, have happily bred hotter and hotter peppers and spread them all over the planet.
I know of no such evolutionary win-win as peppers have pulled off. Genius.
“they’ll each other out”
How has no one commented on this?
Years ago I did a different version: getting out of a very hot jacuzzi then jumping into a snow bank. 'Worth a try. Once.
I love sitting neck-deep in an outdoor hot tub on a cold day!
I’m love to experience with different heat sensation when cooking. Every pepper is warming slightly differently and you can change the whole tasting experience by change the “heat source” of a dish. Recently, I’ve tasted Sichuan pepper and it what actually cold! And a cold very different from mint. Although round-leave mint and pepper mint (here another plant called pepper that’s cold!) have different sensation as well. I should try experiment with cold as well (*_*)
Spearmint would be good too if you’re going for a slightly sweeter, less intense flavor than peppermint!
I didn’t know the english name but this one is very good. A nice balance or freshness and flavor.
News: A recent Internet trend has people forming hurricanes in their mouths!
According to this theory, if I make Buldag ramen using boiling Listerine, it will be tasteless.
None of that is true though.
What is the truth then? I’m curious.
Certainly not your username ahaa
This is not new and it does work to some extent. Back in highschool my buddies and I used to cheat at hot wings challenges by chewing a few cough drops first.
In a very traditional Afghan restaurant I used to frequent, if you ordered something really spicy, they’d bring you these small mint drops afterwards to chew on, no extra charge. Worked very well for me.
I enjoy this.
Pretty sure this is a QueenSnake video.
