 When I first living in Mexico, I invited some friends over for lunch to try Peruvian-style ceviche. They loved it. It was a succes… for them. But for me, it was a few days of crying and burning hands. I cooked with a chile that looked like the one from Peru, but it was much much hotter. It was Chile Piquín. So… never judge a chile by its appearance.
