Raw Chillis

Hey, im quite the fan of just eating raw chillis, alot of decent health benefits also digestion, very good for circulation ive found, weight loss and more.

anyone else a fan of raw chillis? love the buzz and the heat i get from eating them. Although the ones around here in the supermarkets ive pretty much built tolerance too so am going to try grow my own, anything from 600,000HU-1million will be a great experiment.

ive tried a cayenne supplement before which was 575,000HU that took abit to get used too.

It's quite tricky to grow good chilli's in this country. they have a very long ripening season and need a good, hot, long summer but it's great fun. chilli's are seriously fashionable now. My student son surprised me greatly the other day by announcing that he wants to grow chilli's.

I love chopping up raw chilli and putting it with mashed avocado and lots of chopped parsley, basil or coriander.

I don't eat them terribly hot - i prefer the taste of the milder variety but my partner eats wickedly hot chillis - I think it's a bloke thing smiling smiley

I definitely used to be a fan of raw chillis. A while back I even posted quite a few recipes for raw wraps, many of which included the option for adding bits of chillis. (See the "Wraps Galore!" thread in the recipe forum.) However, since then I have become very sensitive to spicy and peppery foods. They now make my stomach hurt and cause a prolonged sore throat (all related to acid reflux). I still love their taste, but sadly, they don't love me.


My favorite raw vegan
