They usespices in their food to create the six basic tastes, which arepungent, bitter, sweet, etc and by balancing all thoseflavours, you then balance your body. I didn,t realise thatspices in indian food were used to that end as a principleto create well-being.

real impending look about him. Wewent in there and we learnt aboutchilli and he trred to demonstrate howmilk, alcohol or sugar is the best wayto drffuse the taste, but we ended upeating habeanero (pepper) anddrinking olive mescals to quell the chilli
