Last Night's Habanero Pepper Problem!

Archive: 36 posts


Okay, for some, this will be a laugh, for others, you might feel the pain too....
I was making salsa last night, and I started to cut up my habanero peppers. It was all normal, I had a great day, I was making my salsa, and then I had to go to the bathroom. So, I went to the bathroom, and I made the mistake of not washing my hands before I went. I know, I know, "Why wash your hands before you go?" I was thinking the exact same thing. After using the bathroom, I washed up and walked out. I then started to feel a pain on my private area...a burning sensation. I started to cringe, I started to jump up and down. The pain was getting worse!
I had forgotten that habanero peppers cause extreme heat on areas of the body that they touch. So I was enduring pain on my private that I didn't want to feel! I tried to out stand it, but I couldn't. I walked into the bathroom again, and I put my hands on my face...oh no! I now got the habanero juice on my FACE! Now my face was burning on my chin and on my left eye!
I wanted so bad to get this stuff off...but how? I go into the shower and wash my face and other area. I get out, and now the pain has not just spread across the entire private area, it has spread from my chin to my left cheek! I am burning up now! I can't stand the pain. I then decide, hmmm, maybe the chemicals in the pool will wash it off, so I go into the pool in my underwear so that I can get my whole burning area wet.... The weirdest part about going in the pool was that it was 11pm and people were sleeping....
I get out, and my whole face now burns including my eyes! So I am thinking, "OH GREAT! This is just a perfect day!"
Now this morning, I feel fine, but it took all night to get the burning sensation off my face and private area. I am just glad that I know not to do that again!

But, I did make some dang good salsa! My own recipe too!

LOL I'll have to think about posting my recipe. XD It is my first, and I need to make more to add a bit more spices. My friends told me it tasted a bit like Pico Digio<Not sure if it is spelled right.

I will post it online if I think the recipe is perfect...in my opinion. XD

What salsas SHOULD be made of in the U.S. more often.


And dude (OP) if something like that happens, try rinsing the affected areas with milk/ Yogurt, r other similar products, it should wear off quickly with that.

Ice Cream!

Ice cream works best for heat, duh.
You get the benefits of the milk and you actually feel like its helping because of the coolness.

O_O I could only imagine the pain
my brother once ate a peice of raw habanero pepper, he got it in he's eye xD
then he ran into the shop and bought a cheap cold drink and put it in his eye O.o (I think it just made it worse lol)
yeah, remind me to NEVER touch habanero peppers

Mantecan Salsa

Ingredients:
Tomatoes - 1 cup (diced)
Red Bell Pepper - 1/2 cup (diced)
Red Onion - 1/4 cup (diced)
Habanero Peppers* - 1 tsp. (mild) 1 Tbsp. (hot) 3 Tbsp. (HELP HELP MY MOUTH IS BURNING OFF MY FACE!!!)
Serrano Peppers* - 1 Tbsp. (This is 100 times milder than the Habanero. LITERALLY!)
Cilantro - 2 Tbsp. (diced, chopped or ground. depends on your taste)
Lemon Juice - 1 tsp.
Lime Juice - 1 tsp.
Chili Powder - 1 tsp.
Garlic Powder - 1 tsp.

Cumin - 1/2 tsp.

Directions:
1. Put all ingredients into a bowl.
2. Stir until well mixed.

*When dicing the peppers, use gloves in order to keep the juice off your body. Then wash your hands afterwards.

(Store in the refridgerator)

Okay My story...

In my final year of high school a teacher decided to throw a party. He brought his special recipe Habanero salsa.
He brought a mild one (a litre with 2 habaneros) and a lava one (a litre with 30 habaneros...). by the end of the party no one had touched the lava habanero sauce. so he offered anyone who would drink it $20.

one other student and myself stepped up and took a chip with a bit of the salsa on it and the other guy backed out... I found out that it lived up to its name but didnt want to back down.

i took a plastic cup of it and downed it as fast as i could... D:

The salsa was fantastic! The after burn was liquid death. my throat closed a bit i turned red and i was sweating all over... i was back to normal about an hour later... I swore never to trust my teacher with salsa again.

plus side i got my $20!!

Totally worth it then, right?
And bub, just be glad you weren't using the ghost pepper. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naga_Jolokia_pepper)

I know right! I wanted to use ghost peppers in another salsa, but I can't find them in any of the stores in the town I live in. Darn Raleys doesn't even sell them! That is where I got my habaneros!

@TheAffected: I would have done that for 20 bucks! I bet my teacher will throw an end of the year party just because it is his final year of teaching!
I am going to miss him, I really wanted him as my teacher next year. (I go to a charter school, so I am in a combined class room of 11th grade and 12th grade.)
Next year will be so boring...and it is my SENIOR YEAR!
