Question:

When we eat spicy food,isit better to drink hot,warm or cold water?


Answers:

I am a former chef and while milk is fine, a fruit juice or in India they drink a yougart and fruit drink called a "lassi", a fruit puree and yougart, a splash of buttermilk.

But any fruit juice will do, orange, pineapple, lemonade or even tomato juice, like milk it disapates the oils from the chilis or spicy foods, water only spreads the heat around you mouth, and as it going to make the heat hotter.

I make sure to have a drink either fruit juice or dairy product, even coffee with milk, or iced tea with lemon will cut the burn, I wokred in Jamaica and Singapore and travelled to Thailand, you do not even have to ask they serve you right away.
