to awaken the taste buds,
sprinkled lightly,
transforming dishes, 

hot peppers and spice
a gentle kick,
symphony of peppery delight,
a flavour's trick.

peppering adds zest, 
a culinary take
enhancing meals, 
a pinch, a sprinkle, 
a burst of surprise
peppering, 
the chef's secret dice

    Hank, I like the chef's secret. I often sprinkle my food, especially Ramin Noodle soup, with Creole seasoning.

    I enjoyed the ‘gentle kick’ of your quadrille, Hank, and that ‘burst of surprise’ describes the effect of pepper perfectly.
