/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I've eaten so much spicy food almost every day for years that I barely find anything spicy anymore, is this a bad thing?

I find chili peppers more astounding desu
>Originally grown and used in only a few parts of central america
>Now used in every single cuisine on earth
You could generalize this to nightshade I suppose, but it's just crazy to me that Chinese recipes that are considered "ancient" were not created until after Columbus explored the Americas.

Making your own hot sauce, do you go for fermented or un-fermented?

I want mine to keep in the fridge for several months, so I must go with a fermented sauce, right?
