I touched my eye and even after washing my hands, cutting up so many of these massive jalapenos felt like being maced. I had to wash my eye out with mineral oil.

We had a talk about pepper hands not too long ago. Those cheap, disposable plastic gloves work well.

Yeah, you know, I just didn't really respect the heat of jalapenos. A little burning in my eye is nothing, but I wasn't thinking about how many pepper slices I was handling. I guess it just built up and when I touched my eye it was bad.

Oh well, mineral oil works like a charm since the capsaicin is fat soluble. Although right on the bottle it says not to put in your eye, I am pretty sure there are medication eye drops with mineral oil as a base so idk. Hasn't hurt so far anyways. Maybe you don't want to do it all the time or something.

Awesome! Any tips for jarring and preserving? One of my fondest memories growing up was mum jarring and preserving peach slices. They were so damn good as a dessert. Would love to learn how to do it.
