When the mercury rises, do you need to forgo spicy foods? Fortunately, the answer is “no.’ Spicy foods can make you sweat, and your body cools as sweat evaporates from your skin. So if you’re craving food with some heat when the thermometer reads 100°, go ahead and set your mouth on fire with one of these 15 dishes. They may bring the heat to your mouth, but they won’t bring the heat to your kitchen—none of them require turning on the oven.
