1. Put more ingredients

The easiest way to reduce the spicy feeling of a dish is to add ingredients.

It helps to "drown out" the spices a bit.

If it's a soup:add liquid .

If it's a solid recipe, add vegetables for example.

2. Add starches

Starches taste bland and sweet . They are perfect for sweetening a dish that is too spicy.

Rice, pasta, noodles, semolina, potato:a garnish of choice to reduce the burning sensation of spices.

You can also put mashed sweet potato, quinoa or polenta

3. Dilute with a dairy product

A good spoonful of fresh cream in the sauce, and it suddenly becomes much softer.

Dairy products such as cream, milk, yogurt or fresh cheese sweeten your various "hot" recipes.

But beware, not all of them can be cooked.

So add them at the last moment.

4. Add vegetable milk

Do you like exotic recipes?

Then you will agree with me that they are often too spicy.

This is where coconut milk comes in. Why?

Because not onlyit attenuates the spices , but in addition it goes perfectly with exotic flavors.

You can also choose almond, hazelnut or soy milk according to your tastes.

5. Try lemon juice

It is a technique of Thai cooks.

They cut the spicy flavor with the acidity of lemon.

Don't ask me how it's possible, but the result is incredible.

And it also works with vinegar, and the acidity of any citrus fruit.

6. Put some sugar

To counter the spiciness of the chilli, adding a sweet element is also a good idea.

We can then add a little sugar, honey or agave syrup .

Be careful to dose well to avoid that your dish is definitely inedible!

Soft and sweet fruits can also be a good alternative. Pineapple, peach, mango, pear...

And why not a little avocado which softens the tongue!

7. Add peanut butter

If you have a jar of nut puree in your cupboard, try sweetening the heat of the chili with it.

Cashew, peanut, hazelnut, almond or sesame puree...

A small spoonful in the overly spicy sauce reduces the spiciness.

You can also put a small cup of peanut or sesame butter on the table and everyone can help themselves according to their taste.

8. Put bread on the table

When your mouth is on fire, there's nothing like throwing yourself on a piece of bread to calm this unpleasant feeling .

So if you tend to overdo it, put well-stocked bread baskets on the table.
