If ice-cream and sorbet hold a special place for dessert, it lends itself easily to various trends and type of gluttony!
I’m a fan of all things spicy. I mean really hot, like african and caraibean chili peppers. But behind the “burning effect” chili peppers have a real nice taste that you can experiment while letting them float around in your stew for example (if you do not pick them, the capsaïcine which is responsible of the burning sensation will not “escape”).
Taking off the seeds limits the burn too, so be careful while doing it: don’t let any seed left. Know that you can always opt for sweet chili peppers.
Well, I assume you’re not afraid of trying something new, so try this chili pepper sorbet and tell me what you think about.
