Re: The Room 102 thread - for things you love or just having a bloody good praise!
I enjoy a bit of spice but I struggle to handle anything too hot. Today, however, I’ve discovered these:
The translation apparently is Korean nuclear fire noodles, and they live up to the name. There’s no build up, it’s an instant torrent of spice, but it’s also a good kind of spice - a full-bodied spice with a decent flavour. By the end, the blocked sinuses I’d had the last few days had been purged, my breath was like fire and I was slightly light headed. Milk did nothing to dull the onslaught either.
I can’t quite explain why other similarly hot food is unbearable but this was not only tolerable but delightful in a slightly masochistic way. It feels like it should come with a medical warning. I’ll definitely subject myself to it again.
