Mexicans love spicy food, and in fact, we can handle quite a lot, but these dishes are not the typical ones that taste good. This is for the brave who enjoy a bit of suffering with their meal.
Neua Pad Prik
It is as simple as it is dangerous: beef fillet seasoned with garlic and spices, along with herbs like basil. What adds the spiciness is the classic Thai red chili used in many dishes of this Asian cuisine. The amount of unseeded chilies in the dish makes it one of the spiciest in all of Thailand and one that deserves respect worldwide.
Sichuan Hot-Pot
If you have tried Mongolian cuisine or the dry chili sauces from Chinese gastronomy, then you might get an idea of the flavor of this dish, but never of the intensity. This boiling broth with garlic and herbs is seasoned with Sichuan pepper and brought to a boil to cook raw meat at the table along with its respective vegetables. It is important to highlight the numbing effect this chili has, so watch out for your tongue.
Curry Phall
The Indian culture does not fall behind when it comes to spices and chili, and that is why their curries include both. This one in particular is difficult to eat; in fact, it is the spiciest curry that exists, and there are even restaurants that issue certificates to those who finish the dish. Its preparation includes ten different types of chili, among which you can find habanero and Bhut Jolokia, the hottest chili in the world.
Habanero Sauce
This list wouldn't be complete without a Mexican dish. Habanero sauce, in its raw version, can bring down even the proudest man. Many of us like it because it also has a fresh and smoky flavor that pairs well with Yucatecan preparations. That said, this doesn't change the fact that trying the sauce alone and ingesting a few seeds can clear your airways in no time.
Shrimp Cocktail
We are talking about one in particular, the one served at St. Elmo Steakhouse in Indiana, United States. People who have tried this cocktail describe the sensation as being electrocuted; the throat closes, the nose burns, and the head heats up in a way that seems like smoke will come out of the ears. This one is only for experts. Interestingly, it doesn't even contain chili; it’s simply the twenty ounces of horseradish that they pour over the shrimp daily.
