Miami Man Mistaken for Nigerian Hijacker
December 31st, 2009“Quiet” Tool-Obsessed Neighbor Amassed Arsenal of Lethal Peppers
I decided to torture my virus with more hot food. I hit the store and got ingredients for doro wat. The plan was to make it even hotter than the curry I made a few days ago. I picked four habanero golds plus one big Trinidad Scorpion to season it.
Now I have the stew bubbling on the stove, but it seems like the virus just went away. My head opened up, and I feel much better. Maybe it was the fumes from the burning onions, toasting spices, and minced peppers. Or maybe I’m really cured.
I have to ask myself: do I still want to eat this stuff if I’m not sick?
Of course I do. Let’s not kid ourselves.
I’m planning to make rotis instead of injera. I can’t help it. Rotis are better. And I bought sour cream to wrap up in there with the doro wat.
Tomorrow I may have something that makes a virus seem pleasant.

Ohhh…that was amazing. My brain actually melted and ran down my throat. I can’t say I miss it. I haven’t used it since 1996.
Take my word for it. Rotis are ten times better than injera. Dump a big pile of doro wat on one, make sure there’s a boiled egg in there somewhere, add a big blog of sour cream, fold it up like a burrito, and GO.

With a bad cold, I like very hot curry. Something in the capsicum that causes sinuses to open. (sniff, sniff) I must be coming down with a cold. Time for curry.
