Hello /int/, I've created a map which details the spiciness (in terms of chiles, not black pepper, radishes, mustards, etc.) of respective cuisines, lighter indicates less spicy with uncolored meaning not spicy, black equaling spiciest (only one region is fully black in case it is difficult to tell). How accurate do you find this? I would appreciate feedback.

Our foods was never this spiciness only came with sources of your own choosing that are spicy or not. Fix this nigger map immediately!

Its blurry, but Vietnam is significantly lighter than its neighbors here with north and south similar to Tunisia or the Philippines and the center similar to Senegal or South Korea. Obviously Vietnamese food is much milder than it's western neighbors but you guys still use more chiles than almost all of Europe, the middle east, LatAm (bar Mexico), or southern Africa, and there are definitely areas (central region, tribal areas in far NW) that can have relatively spicy food.

Idk because I know very little about world cuisine and places in the map with the same color range, but in northeast Brazil we use scented pepper, black pepper, cumin, coriander, amaranth, urucum, bay leaves, onions, leek and garlic too.
Some people do use pepper chile sauce in pastries or bbq but it's used like ketchup and not during preparation

In Bahia they also commonly use turmeric and crushed red peppers (some people here also add it to bean stews and dishes with sausages), and palm oil too but so does maranhenses.
Oregano is often used in anything that involves hot cheese but I think everyone in Brazil does that with coalho, which is a norheastern cheese.

I thought Sichuan is the heart of China's spiciness. Why it's not the darkest there and you made Jiangxi and Hunan the darkest there?
>>
>>225037726
Jiangxi and Hunan are generally considered spicier, but I think Sichuan is more known outside of China, similar to how north east Indian cuisine is generally the spiciest in India (and the world) but south India is generally seen as the spicy region of India.

so you're retarded, okay. balkans definitely have spicier food than hungary but don't get as much credit. you did pink spot in Transylvania but Crișana and even fucking Oltenia have spicier food in this shithole of a country.

>>225037265
Your map is retarded just from how red tunisia is, it's safe to assume your thought process is also stupid for the rest
All maghreb countries use harissa equally they're not special in that regard
>>
We have a very spicy cuisine actually
Lots of relishes made of spicy peppers

What happened to mustard and horse radish?
>>
>>225037265
Thank you to Portugal for spreading the chilli plant to SEA.

Thirdies do not understand flavours so they only associate spice with capsaicin. The far more pleasant strongness of mustard, garlic or ginger are unknown to them.
>>
>>225041863
I think they know about ginger. But it's true, we use so much horseradish, mustard and garlic with different levels of pugency
>>
>>225037265
I think it's pretty accurate
>>
>>225037265
>south india being more spicy than SK
nigga our food is so fucking mild, even compared to shit from the north of india it's mild as fuck
>>
>>225041835
