de-seeded and cleaned out about 8 peppers for jalapeno poppers and used some to put in with fried taters and washed hands afterwards. peppers were fine and not to hot while eating.
took a shower about 4 hours later and all of a sudden my hand started burning like i had touched a hot grill. i search on the intertube and came across that people had burned there hands while working with peppers and offered a solution.
my hand was burning so much i tried a remedy. washed hand, rinse, and apply olive oil and scrubbed into the skin, and lightly washed. the pain mostly went away almost immediately while my hand was still oily. after about 30 minutes i washed the oil off with dawn dish soap, had a margarita, and things were good again. never seen that before and been around over 60 years and still learning.
The power of the pepper,
is hard to believe.
Don't underestimate it's ability,
and be deceived.
Green, red, and interesting,
with origins from the south.
Used with many dishes,
and delightful to the mouth.
It's said peppers have many benefits,
including offering pain relief.
They are nutritious, and help your heart,
so much good, almost beyond belief.
When cleaning peppers, seeds, ribs, and such,
don't rub your eyes or anything else to the touch.
And hopefully the power of the pepper,
will be good for you, and won't be too much.
