killamch89 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Intense heat up front, then soothing sweetness to follow - does that contrast thrill or overwhelm you? I’ve had jalapeño-pineapple empanadas chased by coconut-lime sorbet, and the temperature-temperature play was mind-blowing. Does a palate “reset” dessert enhance the overall meal, or split the experience too sharply? What spicy-to-cool pairings have you tried that hit the perfect balance?

Shortie Posted Sunday at 05:11 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:11 PM I am not someone who can eat many spicy foods now due to an issue I have with my stomach but I have in the past had spicy starters or even meals and then followed them up with a cool dessert. In the past I have eaten things such as curry and then followed them up with ice cream, usually mint-choc chip which is my all-time favourite.
