Spicy. Just like I like it.
How I Do: Take a strip, and give it a few accordion folds. That way, it can stand up on its long edge. Once you start the smolder, it burns nice and evenly. And it looks pretty, burning that way. If you're not into burning things, slip a strip into a discreet paper envelope, and drop it into your bag or favorite drawer, for a fresh reminder of its heady resin.
