Question:

After cooking with jalapenos last night my finger still burn..HELP!!?

How can get this burning feeling to go away. I have washed them countless times. I lost sleep last night because they burned so bad. Does anybody know a remedy for making the burning stop??? Please help.


Answers:

Try soaking your fingers in cold milk. It really works for any chilli burns or skin reactions. I once heard a whole scientific explanation for this. Its has something to do with the differently charged molucules that are in water and milk. I think also the fat of the milk combines with the oily molucules of the pepper. Anyway, it is proven that water only makes it worse!
