Kitchen Hints of the Day!

When Cutting Jalapeno Peppers....

* The best way to avoid getting the jalapeno oils on your skin is to wear rubber or latex gloves when handling the peppers.


* If you love the flavor of jalapeno peppers but not quite the heat, you can easily remove the seeds and innards, or placenta, from the cut pepper to reduce the heat.


Some Jalapeno Facts.......


* Jalapenos are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are necessary for supporting and maintaining a healthy body and immune system.

* They contain vitamins C, K, & A as well as small amounts of vitamin E and B complex. The vitamin C & E also do double duty as powerful antioxidants in the prevention of disease and cancer.

* One jalapeno alone contains more vitamin C than the recommended daily dose for maintaining healthy tissue repair and immunity.
