I decided to buy a supermarket chilli sauce in a jar this week for tea. The sauce was very thick and nice consistency but far too spicy for my korma-like delicate taste buds! Just wondering if anyone knows if there is anything I could add to spicy sauces to tone them down a bit? It was a shame as had to bin most of it. I have made my own before and obviously add just a bit of chilli to taste but this was just for quickness tonight as Tuesdays are always manic and I didn't have much time to spare!!

Natural yoghurt :)

Yes agree Daisy :D OR a bit of dark 70% + dark chocolate :D OR ketchup :)

Blimey what supermarket sauce can be that hot

Yoghurt or cream :D

I've also heard that putting a raw potato in works as well

ah ha! Makes sense...will try both!

I'm ashamed to say my secret ingredient for chilli is......Baked beans!!!

I lovvvvvve a hot hot chilli, but OH is a big wuss so I pop a small tin of 'beanz' into his and it seems to do the trick.

I think it's the sugar :D

Been googling :P

I have a million and one other things to do really, yet am googling chilli.

>I have a million and one other things to do really, yet am googling chilli.<

ROFL!! :D

Let us know what you find! YUM!

Chocolate added to an over hot chilli will cool it down - not sure how it works but definitely does as I have tried it :)

Of course, you could eat the hot chilli and then enjoy the chocolate later :D :D  It would be for medicinal purposes only of course so you mustn't enjoy it too much  :D :D :D :D

Sour cream is good for toning down stuff like chilli.

Sour cream!!??
Stuff that!!! some ones mentioned chocolate Lori!!!! Leggit!!!!
Ive found chocolate wine :D (thank you M&S :))
Ive even found chocolate beer!! (some obscure German stuff the OH drinks :))
Ive found chocolate bath bubbles (Thank you Jo Malone :))

Chocolate beer is FOUL OH bought some accidentally - I tried it and it was YUCK :D :D :D

Daisy

Oh I have a recipe for you Husky me cocoa-nut. Mole, mm spicy and chocolate and in one. I have some hot chocolate with chilis too; very warming!

Lori,I'll try anything once, and my chocolate addiction knows no bounds...... but......
chocolate Moles?????
Eeeeuuuuuuw!!!

Nicest chocolate I ever tasted was at Cadbury World :D it was the drink the Aztecs were supposed to have liked :D  MMMMMM  Spicy, chocolatey, slightly HOT (chilli) and no milk!  It was fab - but they wouldn't sell us any :( :(  I tried to get them to market it but they weren't interested :(

Son's girlfriend who lives with us has Chilli and Cardamom Hot Chocolate by Ringtons - yummy. Don't know where she got it from tho' :D

Daisy

OOH !  that sounds delicious :D

I'll have to do a search for that!!

Hotel Chocolat has chocolate with chili Dill. They buy fair trade chocolate too.

My mum actually cooked chilli con carne with dark chocolate in it.  yummy scrummy :-)

I put a generous heap of cocoa powder in my chili con carne too :) Delish

> I'll try anything once

Surely not just once? The first time you are too shocked to know what's happened.  YOu need to try everything twice to be sure you don't like it!

Makes sense huh?

>chocolate Moles????? Eeeeuuuuuuw!!!<

he he, but their tiny feet are so crunchy! yumm ;-)

Mole is so good but it's best to make your own. My OH had some in a supposed Mexican restaurant here and it was garbage.

To add to the chocolate list ;)

How about this: scrub-a-dub-dub

Dogs and chocolate theme in one :D

:D :D Yuk !!
