hahah I've been there before man. NOT fun

that said, I didn't have too much trouble this year after chopping 2 pounds without gloves.

[eyeguy 54]

I am wearing this outfit cuz I messed up 2 weeks ago.. Not fun! :>)

[Walleyehooker]

I had a friend come screaming out of the bathroom after handling Jalapenos.That was funny watching him jump around screaming like a girl. So watch out what you handle after you handle them.

[eyeguy 54]

burning eyeballs are worse! lol

That would be fun but I can't handle the HOT stuff, lol. Go ahead, call me a wimp. level 6 on 1 to 10 is about my limit. Last nights batch is about a 5.5 with the extra tablespoon of cayene pepper in it. Just right! :>)

Gloves and goggles everytime for me from now on after last weeks 30 minute eyeballs on fire torture time. LOL Fingernails burned for 3 days! 18 more pints this last batch and with the salsa man get up all was just dandy afterwards. Might have to do batch # 3 after labor day :>)

OK Mark, try this. Strip all the seeds out of the jalos with your fingers, this is after you cut up other peppers and onions and run in the processor to get those nice fumes all over your face, then half hour later, accidentaly rub your dry eyes. Me being only 90 % Norsky I guess is why I almost screamed! LOL

That sounds like a double or even a triple dare

[hockeybc69]

Well,,,,, I do have some common sense to not take that dare.

[eyeguy 54]

And here I thought you were tough!

[hockeybc69]

Tough,,, not stupid! LOL

[OnAFly]

Try dicing habenaros without gloves. I did that once and had the oil on my fingers for two days despite repeated hand washing with several different types of soaps.

I always wear gloves now.

[hockeybc69]

I dont hand dice any peppers or onions actually.

I will slice them, but no way on dicing up small.

I use one of these. A MUST have!!!!!!

[P_Norts]

Yeah, I am going to have Papa Norts making salsa all weekend. We have never canned it though. Just saved what we could eat and gave away ther rest. Would love to can some. We do have a big canner somewhere. Could someone tell me how we do this. I realize we would need jars and lids too. Any help would be appreciated. Love this forum, some great cooks here.

clean jars and screw bands in hot soapy water and rinse. Jar lids from box into hot water and rince. fill pint jars to about 1 inch from top. Attach lid and screw bands nice and tight. into canner and bring to rolling boil. We usually boil 5 to 10 minutes then turn the burner off and let sit for half a day till it cools off. take off the screw bands and lightly push down on center of lid to make sure it's sealed. it'll pop if not sealed. good luck

[Gordie]

We finished ours up last night and yum yum we have plain, hot and call the fire department WOOOOO is that stuff gooooood I love it when you sweat while your eating it

[eyeguy 54]
