> I agree, but you need a certain tolerance to heat before you can stomach enough chili to notice the flavour.
Not really, because the flavor (other than heat, which is itself considered one of the basic flavors) comes almost entirely from the body of the pepper, the heat mostly from the seeds and ribs; preparation choices can very much control the relative presence of each in a dish.
