Oh lord, I am so damn macho
Jan. 5th, 2012 10:37 pmI, um. May have made my fragrant-and-hot pig's intestines more fragrant and, uh, hotter than the authentic Chinatown version. Whoops.
See, it was a new pack of dried chillies, and an old tin of Szechuan pepper: so obviously I needed to use a lot of the pepper because it will have lost some of its fragrance, and I had no idea how hot the chillies were but these big ones are usually disappointing, so...
Yeah. Anyway. Chillies are hot, pepper is still radiant. Dinner was lovely, thanks - but you might not have liked it. You'd need to be macho. (Honestly, I am such a boy about spicings. I embarrass myself. But some just do, y'know. Like it hot.)
