Mark Wiens was challenged by an incredibly spicy papaya salad containing fifty chilies, which he described as a sensation that 'brings a tear to your eye.' He later collaborated with a food historian to revive 'Aue,' a rare and hidden Ean dish featuring freshwater fish roasted in a clay pot with an extensive tray of local herbs.
