“A stew with too much spice neither burns nor becomes sour.”

Meaning

This proverb illustrates that anything in excess does not yield good results. While spice is crucial in cooking, too much of it spoils the true flavor of the dish. Thus, it's used to indicate that even if a lot of effort or ingredients are put in, if there's no balance, the outcome might not be as expected. It implies that too many cooks spoil the broth, or overdoing something can ruin it.
