What you need Matt is one of them hosepipes at the side of your porcelain armchair like we have over here

Western tourists think they are something to do with religion

What they are really for is gently rinsing the recently ejected remains of last night's thermo-nuclear dining experience from your tattered ringpiece Because all bog paper does is massage any remaining half-digested chile seeds into what's left of your poor seared teatowel holder

Talking of insanity sauce, the "Who Dares Burns - Second Asult" is MUCH MUCH hotter

The Snug Rhino

never understood the hot thing - why eat it? i always eat a korma and hear all the "sissy" talk......then they sit there sweating like pigs and spend all day on the loo in pain 12 hrs later - i dont get it????

PeteBrant

Well the people that are calling you sissy are obviously complete girls themselves if they are sweating over anything hotter than a korma.

Personally I find a Madras is just the right level between flavour and heat, and I suffer no ill effects at all.

It's just an extension of the macho drinking thing I am sad to say. I don't worry about it. As you say find something you enjoy eating and leave it at that. If morons want to call me a cissy or gay or whatever just because I can't drink 10 pints and eat a vindaloo then it is them with the issues not me.

As it happens I genuinely enjoy fairly hot curries, but not the vindaloo style where it is all heat and no flavour.

[Davey]

Chillis offer you a massive endorphin rush, once you alclimateise yourself to the spice they are very pleasureable to eat!

Iwan

Yep, I tried eating one about the size of a golf ball for a dare. It was horrible, all the muscles in my neck/face went into spasm and I was starting to hallucinate like Homer in the 'guatemalan insanity peppers' episode of the Simpsons!

Iwan

Yeah, that's why I eat hot food. It's hard to describe to someone who feels that a korma is 'enough' for them, but some people just like the endorphin rush you get from hot foods. You get acclimatised to hot spices over time, I used to eat hot curries regularly and would have vindaloo 90% of the time, the other 10% I'd have a phall. These days I don't eat hot food anywhere near as much so it'd be more like madras 90% of the time and vindaloo 10%, I don't think I'd enjoy a phall level of heat without some build up. And if some people only like milder stuff that's fine too, no sense eating something if you aren't going to enjoy it.

Incidentally, I just had 2 of those Pepperami 'Fire Sticks' - they were lovely!

[Davey]

I love hot curries but I dont find traditional hot dishes appealing, such as a madrass or vindaloo, what I will do is ask for a Methi or Birianni dish to be served Madrass hot with extra green chilli's.. god my mouth is watering right now thinking about a king prawn birianni with extra green chillis <droool> I know where im going on the way home!

Iwan

*nods*

I used madras and vindaloo as people will have heard of them and know roughly how hot they are, but yes I do the same as you, I ask for other dishes but request a madras or vindaloo level of heat. I've not tried Birianni but I will do next time, my favourite is chicken Tikka Shally made vindaloo hot.

my mrs likes spicy food, and i can just about handle a madras.

but weetabix gives her the ***** so imagine something from the local indian

we have to talk through the bathroom door, as she needs re-assuarance it will end soon

[Davey]

Birrianni is a loverly dry lowish fat dish.. its not got as much Ghee as other dishes.. The meat and rice are mixed together and you get a seperate vegetable curry.. Its one of my faves! Great with some Chapati's and a bit of Brinjal.

Also if you've not tried it Methi Lamb is AWESOME!

PeteBrant

I'm sure she would be absolutely delighted that you have shared this with us. Any more of her bodily functions you can tell us about?

We grow our own Chillies in our garden, (special area-Nuclear fallout type...) mostly they are a mixture of Mexican seeds plus some other seeds we got from some nutter in Brazil.

Needless to say that these chillies are insane in normal form, then the missus creates the home brewed sauce (sits about 6-7 months in the jar after various stages of the process), and then I spend a week on the can after drowning food with it!

Worth every moment of intoxicating pain!!

Nearly died once after having some seriously hot Mexican stuff! Was hilarious!

This has to be about the funniest thing I have read on here in a long time

I love the old endorphin rush from super hot chillies, i must really be acclimatised as i don't really feel the heat just the wave rushing over me as the body steps up a gear.

Went to a steam festival and had a taco with this tiny bottle of beige sauce, they were like nooo only a small drop wile i shook it, get in there my son.

Ive had daves before at work, people were suffereing and in tears while i was like meeeehh it's hot but nothing special lol.

I dont find anything you can buy hot anymore, Vindaloo or anything like that, I ask for extra Chillies and they dont put enough in !

I have become aclimitised, its funny when a none Chilli person nicks a bit and starts gagging.

Tonights was Chicken kebabs with Nandos extra hot and sliced chillis.

speedymonkey

I have a bottle of 'Blaires Mega Death' sauce (550,000 scoville units), its 3 times the strength of 'Daves Insanity sauce' can be bought on Ebay for about £10, never need another chilli sauce, EVER AGAIN
I did the old 'ill just try a tiny bit straight from the bottle trick' NEVER AGAIN, its just off the scale in terms of hottness, it makes you cough its so potent!
Gotta love chilli tho, its pure evil

As far as hot food goes, anyone had "serious" Indonesian or Sri Lankan?

I have not, which still makes me cry at night!

CrisPDuk

Haven't tried either yet, but I am getting rather partial to some of the more 'interesting' dishes from northern Thailand and the Laotian borders

StickyMicky

parents brought me back a variety of "hot" sauces from america and the top one is the habanero pepper version (they are graded 1 -5) quite nice but needs to be respected a little bit (nice splashed on steak before cooking)

this lunatic attempts to eat 10 full peppers by himself

YouTube - 10 Habanero Peppers

i used to eat king size bombay badboys at 3am to keep me awake on night shifts

parents also brought me back one of these a few years back
hot sauce, salsa, habanero snacks, southwest gifts, asskickin, from hell, spontaneous combustion, whoop ***, gift baskets

but after 3 years of hardly getting touched, it was thrown out

[Davey]

"Who dares burns second assult" is 2,500,000 scolvile, I put a couple of drips in a jar of mayo and mixed it up to make a nice tortilla dip at work.. One of the Directors had a scoop on a crisp and couldnt come in the next day
