How The World Became Spicy ( In Only 20 Years)

It all started with a simple question when did Thai food become spicy From there, we did our best to find an answer that s never before been properly explained, unraveling the entire story of the postColumbian spice trade, taking us to the ports of southern Africa, the kitchens of Gujarat, and the central Asian plateau as we follow the written, genetic, and linguistic history of the humble chili from the New World to the Far East. This is our attempt at telling the story of the history of the chili pepper: history s spiciest conquest.
