Had this, or something similar but stronger, when we were in Italy last - blew my head off - flame spouting out my nostrils - the waiters had to grab the fire extinguishers - my poor sinuses are still recovering.
Had similar experience in Indonesia with a curry.  Marina this is pretty mild.

You've been out buying special jars for this one Katie - where did you pick them up?    I noticed my jar was amongst that lot  ;)

I picked them up at Gagonis Bros.  
I recylce them and have used them a lot, I do buy new lids for them though.

Yes your jar is there  ;D ;D

I love these jars.
This is a good deal, Katiej.  I've seen this size jar for $6-7+ each in some of the specialty stores.

 I recently picked up a box of 4 X 250 ml (I think that's the size you have) - 4 X 500 ml,  8 lids, a funnel and a recipe book for $29.95 from Everten - they were on special back in September but it looks as though thery're still there.

They are great jars Goldfish  ;D

I've previously bought that box you mentioned - the funnel is particularly handy.  PoK have it at the moment for $24.00.  Their prices are cheaper than I've seen before.

I have lots of the 500ml jars as well as the 250ml ones, but I'm thinking though I may have to order more  ;D

I'm finding them hard to resist  ;D

If you don't need the funnel goldfish, a better buy would be the six 250ml jars at $14 and the six 500ml jars at $14 - that way you'd get 12 jars for $28 (compared to the $24 starter pack with 8 jars).

DJ I haven't made this recipe but I measured out 1 cup of granulated sugar for you and it weighed 210grams.I hope this helps your dilemma.
