How do i relieve the burn of a jalapeno pepper in my mouth?!


Question: How do i relieve the burn of a jalapeno pepper in my mouth!?
I just ate 4 jalapeno peppers and my mouth is burning like heck, and we ran out of milk just a little bit ago!.
We do have whip cream though, but I dont think it'll help, what do I do, water isnt helping!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Bread, it absorbs the capiscam on your tongue, gums etcWww@FoodAQ@Com

try orange juice or lemonade--the citric acid helps dissolve the oil from the pepper that is burning you!.
Salt also helps (that's why they serve margaritas with mexican food!)
JAMA says to use "any substance that contains casein (e!.g!. milk, milk chocolate, some beans and nuts)!. Casein, a lipophyllic phosphoprotein, works to "cool the burn" as a detergent that literally strips the capsaicin from its receptor binding site!. This is effective because it is the lipophyllic side chain of the capsaicin molecule that interacts with the lipoprotein of the receptor!."Www@FoodAQ@Com

try the whip cream, it's closest to the milk!.!.!.!.yeah the milk would've helped tooWww@FoodAQ@Com

Milk always works for me!. But if you don't have milk, suggest a little sugar or ice cream!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

first- don't drink water! I would eat bread or rice, or something like that, it gets the flavor out!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
