You can control the amount of heat in this meal with the types and amounts of chile peppers. I like the spectrum of flavors that results from mixing roasted with fresh chiles. To roast a chile pepper, you can treat it as you would a marshmallow when camping, using tongs or a long fork to rotate it over a low flame on a gas burner. However, a safer chile-roasting method is to place the chile on a baking sheet and slide it under the broiler for just a few minutes. When charred on all sides, place the chile in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. The steaming will loosen the skin, making it easy to remove. Peel, stem, and seed roasted peppers before using. See page 168 for a discussion on preparing tofu.

If you want to get adventurous, try dipping sushi in the spicy lime-soy sauce.

We challenged resident Bon Appétit supertaster and test kitchen director Chris Morocco to recreate Aarón Sánchez's chiles rellenos with vegetable picadillo. The catch? He'll have to use each of his senses - other than sight. Does Chris have what it takes to recognize and reproduce the complex layers of flavor while his eyes are behind a blindfold?
