Note: Working with jalapeños
or other chiles: Capsaicin is the ingredient in chiles that causes
the burning sensation associated with fresh peppers. It's a good
idea to use rubber gloves when handling fresh chiles. (Disposable
surgical gloves, available at most drugstores, work best for
this.) If you choose not to use gloves, be extremely careful
not to touch any part of your body, especially your eyes. After
you've finished handling the chiles, wash your knife and cutting
board with hot soapy water to ensure that there is no carry-over
to other foods that may come in contact with the peppers.
