  • Think spice makes everything better? Well, you’re right. We’re turning up the heat with our spicy food world tour. We asked seven people in seven countries to show us the foods that make them salivate and sweat. On the menu is dakdoritang in Seoul (a hot soup spiced with gochugaru), jambalaya in Houston (check out the cayenne in that one), and maboke in the Congo (it gets its fiery flavor from red Scotch bonnet peppers). And, what should you do when you can’t handle the heat? Great Big Story senior producer Beryl Shereshewsky tests out different hacks to ease the burn-like sugar, chocolate, and even vodka.

      When you travel across India, the standard definition of Biryani goes for a toss. Each region seems to have it's own type of Biryani .What you get in Kerala is not the same as in Hyderabad, Delhi, Kolkata & Kashmir . They are all very different.

      शिरीष ರಾಮಾಯ What does that have anything to do with this video? Do you even watch it to know what it's about and what it's meant by "spicy"? It has nothing to do with what country makes the most spice or who uses the most spices in their food. It's not about spices. It's about food being spicy = which means hot. Also, do you combine the 70% of your spices all together in one dish? Don't think so lol.
      First it depends on how spicy/hot someone wants to make the food, no matter the country, and secondly, the spiciest chili known in the world (and this video is what it's all about) is from the United States, not India (remark: I'm not from the USA, but this fact is known).
      Maybe the spiciest foods are from India, I NEVER said no, because I don't know. I just added some more. And I talked about Korea because I know about that country only as my boyfriend is Korean and he cooks a lot, but I can't judge about India and I didn't judge either. We should open our minds shall we.
      Again, we're all talking about food being hot only.
      Btw here is a list from the "Times of India" website m.timesofindia.com/life-style/food-news/7-countries-that-have-the-spiciest-food-in-the-world/amp_etphotostory/69219574.cms

      शिरीष ರಾಮಾಯ LoL can't you just educate me without being so condescending?
      However now your comment is valid talking about the hottest chili and not the country with the most "spices", which was my point before.
      Still it's not disqualified if it's spicy, so much it burns. That's the point of the video. The spiciest dishes made with whatever chili (natural or hybrid) still remain the spiciest, it's still the hottest, nobody is talking about natural chilies, just the feel of eating it🤷🏼‍♀️.

    • @Romy---

      @jisooboobear Stop being so patriotic. Seriously. Hating on everything else but your own. I'm not a Koreaboo only because my boyfriend is Korean. That's so ignorant. I'm very happy with my own country thank you very much. I also LOVE Indian food, so joke's on you.
      I only mentioned some more countries with spicy food and y'all come literally hating. Pathetic🤦🏼‍♀️. I never said anything against India's food (again, I love it). I only talked about what she ate. Many Indians said that her Indian dish is not the spiciest ones you have. Or is it?
      Also don't compare instant food with the dishes you can make yourself at home...
      Maybe travel a bit more people, it's good for the mind.

    • @Romy---

      Also I tried both, several times, Indian and Korean. Not "instant" :) (and I never said that Korean food is spicier than Indian, I was just talking about the specific dish she ate in the video).

      I don't feel like people are offended, they are just offering a valid critique. A video about "Spicy Food From Around the World" that leaves out Mexico, the birthplace of chili, and the rest of Latin America, just seems a little incomplete. Europe has no representative as well.
      Which feels especially odd considering two of the countries are mid-size S.E.A. neighbors. They probably filmed the segments back to back.
      I still think it's a good video, just that it could have been even better.

      Omar Costilla Hey what’s wrong with having with stories from 2 mid S.E.A countries, sure you could’ve said it was cheeky since they filmed it when both of the stories were in countries which were next to each other. But you have to know that the crew filming this cannot always go where you want them to be. Like imagine them just travelling to a country that’s is far from their home just to film a segment of their video. And also because of the current situation, they’re also risking their lives too just that film that one part of the video that you actually didn’t like about because about they didn’t feature a place that you thought that was going to be in that video. Plus, if they don’t get enough profit from the video they might go bankrupt like what happened to Atari. And imagine them going to a country to film it and not finding a person to film with. Like someone might have pranked them to come all the way there so they wasted their money and couldn’t film their video.
      In fact, they could have went to Mexico, your so-called birthplace of Chili but did not find anyone trustworthy enough to film with

    We love our spices in Africa. In West Africa, our meals are spicy. There’s a dish that is served with ground fresh pepper (ground fresh pepper, onions, garlic ,ginger & tomatoes); you decide on the mixture. Although the pepper, onion and tomatoes are constant. In Ghana, the fresh ground pepper is served with banku, kenkey or rice alongside smoked or fried fish and fried eggs for the rice. No restrictions though. Enjoy 🍽

    There is a common misconception! Spice doesn’t necessarily have to burn your mouth! Spice means herbs or other ingredients that increases the flavor of foods! Cloves, Turmeric, pepper, chillies, bay leaves etc all are spices not just chillies and peppers!
    Spice can be sweet, aromatic, bitter, hot etc etc.
    So don't confuse spicy food with mouth burning hot chilli food!

      Kumar's Curries & Bumbus (2011). "Curries and Bumbus". Verstegen.
      ""Known throughout the world as the "Spice Islands", the Indonesian islands of Maluku contributed to the introduction of its native spices to world cuisine. Spices such as nutmeg or mace, clove, pandan leaves, keluwak and galangal are native to Indonesia.""
      there are of Course some Indians influences but saying that 70% of spices are from India ? that's a little bit too bias,
