Your spice threshold

I swear I just made this thread but it didn’t show up, so mods please delete one if you see duplicate.

So sweet bell pepper being 0 and Habanero being 10, what is your spice threshold?

Mine is probably 1.5

Probably as high as it goes. I love spicy food. Disadvantage is in our house if I make it only I can eat it as a result :hinna:

5-6

Re: Your spice threshold

8.5 or 9. i can have a a bit of habanero but not the whole pepper by itself. i like making chutney with habanero and mint, and then mixing some of that with yogurt to make spicy raaita. so yummy , esp with biryani

You guys are killing me with your threshold. I can only relate with philosophy so far

Re: Your spice threshold

i feel like extra spices take away from the taste of the food. like i cany enjoy it.

Re: Your spice threshold

For me any lower than 6-7 and I find it too mild to eat.

I thought you meant maximum threshold… I like certain things spicy (like buffalo wings or Nihari or other special occasion salans/dishes), but for everyday cooking I stay at about 3.5

In my case, extra spice immediately burns my taste buds, after which I can’t taste anything properly.

Hasn’t Niksik ever made Vindaloo?

Awesome spicy dish. Makes my eyes water but I love it

^ Boss you have a pretty strong feminine side.

You’ve called me Boss? Wah wah.

And hey I am not the one posting food threads every other day :chai:

Would never eat Habanero by itself but otherwise probably an 8 or 9.

While certain foods lose their taste with extra spice, others only taste their best with extreme heat.
