Sweet and Spicy Combinations
A delicious contrast that excites our taste buds, sweet and spicy combos are a great way to play around with flavors to create something entirely new. This unlikely combination works so well together because the sweetness tempers the heat of peppers, revealing flavor profiles of the spice under the kick.
Fruit and Spice
The marriage of fruits and spices can give birth to a great snack, a unique cocktail, or a complex dish like this watermelon curry. For a classic fruit and spice combination that everyone loves, you can make this Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Quinoa Recipe.
Take a trip to Mexico and make a fruit cup with mango, watermelon, pineapple, and Chamoy sauce- a spicy salsa made from dehydrated fruit, chili, salt and sugar. This combination is a delicious summertime snack that can not only taste delicious but look beautiful as well.
Spicy Honey
For a combination that will pair well with meats, vegetables, and more, honey and spice do the trick. This Mexican Burger with Adobo Sauce Recipe combines the smoky heat of chipotle peppers with the floral sweet notes of honey to make a delicious sauce that will elevate these vegan burgers.
Try making your own spicy honey with 3 simple ingredients: Apple cider vinegar, chili flakes (or your favorite spicy pepper), and honey. Adding a splash of vinegar will cut the sweetness of the honey to balance out the sauce. Simply just simmer the ingredients together, let it sit for 10 minutes, strain, and jar it to use in a range of recipes from Pizza to Ribs!
