Being an inhabitant of Cajun country, I am quite familiar with cayenne pepper. Unfortunately, although I am of French ancestry I am also Scots/Irish, and that part of my heritage seems to dominate my tolerance for seasoning. When I eat crawfish I must wear gloves. Not because I'm that fastidious, mind you, but because if I don't then my hands turn beet red and sting like fire for hours. Cayenne and my skin just don't get along. I can eat it anyway and endure what it does to the inside of my mouth, but if there's too much red pepper in something it feels like the inside of my mouth is one big boo-boo after you've poured alcohol on it. Kinda takes away from the enjoyment of the food, at least for me. And we won't speak of what happens a few hours later. I envy those with more resilient mucus membranes.Snorpenbass wrote:Distracted wrote:Sounds painful.
I know you're kidding, but cayenne isn't that kind of hot. Chili is, cayenne actually helps *settle* your stomach (much like powdered ginger...fresh ginger is the opposite to powdered in that aspect). Trust me, a dish high in cayenne will not have you suffering in the bathroom for hours like chili does.
