Lucullian delights

Gravatar I love fruit with chile -- the whole sweet/hot thing that happens in your mouth is amazing. I know some people prefer their fruit salad very sweet, but I love the balance. Beautiful photos, as always, too.


Gravatar Delicious, and I love the bowl-in-a-bowl idea too!


Gravatar Very nice, Ilva. I like this one. Going to try it soon.

Gravatar I don't know why chile and lime on fruit has not caught on with the rest of the world, so I am glad to see you writing about it. All of Latin America can't be wrong...right?


Gravatar I sure wish chili peppers would catch on in Spain because I haven't seen a single fresh chili pepper around here yet :/ Maybe I'm just in the wrong part of the country?


Gravatar Lydia-yes, it does add an extra dimension! And thanks!

Kalyn-thanks!

Paz-Big hug!

Jeni-wwell maybe we're just taste imperialistic? Better change that!

Murasaki-well, you just have to grow some yourself on the window sill, if you can't find the seeds, just tell me and I will send you some!


Gravatar I love sweet with heat, this sounds delicious!


Gravatar That looks refreshing.


Gravatar Looks lovely - and I'm sure that other fruits world be great in there as well... maybe mango or melon?


Gravatar I believe eating hot foods in hot climates has something to do with them casing you to sweat which in turn cools you down.


Gravatar brilynn-so do I! and thanks!

Maya-it was! tnxs

Hanne-oh yes, almost any fruit I think will make a great combination! Thanks!

sarah-thanks, that sounds very probable! Better sweat more then!


Gravatar In my quest for all things holistic, I discovered that chilies and other hot spices have a "cooling" effect on the body. South East Asians and Indians know this- thats why they eat very hot food in their warm tropical climate. Very strange but true- one would think the reverse was true..


Gravatar yes that must be it! Thanks XXXXX
