Portugese introduced the red chili peppers. Indian food is infact not at all "hot". <BR/>It is actually spicy. In the sense, a whole lot of spices are used for cooking. Indian cooking should not be hot as per Ayurveda. Spicy and hot have been mixed and used I guess many times.<BR/><BR/>Mexican Tobasco suace is what I would say hurtfully hot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26293647.post-1152649055842828632006-07-11T13:17:00.000-07:002006-07-11T13:17:00.000-07:00Great, indeed.
