The secret of making tasty boiled beans: as soon as the water boils, drain the water, pour in some cold water and add 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
The intensity of senses: fight against pepper
When cutting hot peppers, for example, Chile or Jalapeno, your fingers begin to burn, and if you scratch your nose or eyes with those fingers – all life turns into hell for the next 20 minutes, and water and soap won`t help you with that.
If this happened to you, go for dairy products and other acids, oils and alcohol. Pepper juice is close to alkaline, so it neutralizes by acids and fats.
Choose lemon or tomato juice, milk or yogurt (especially if it burns in the mouth or on the face – you can make sour milk poultice), or olive oil.
