While the discussion is on habaneros - has anyone come up with an
antidote to the burning they do to your fingers when you slice and seed
them?

I was slicing them lengthwise and seeding them, hoping to roast them
before making salsa, and burned my fingers quite bad. Nothing seemed
to neutralize them that I tried.

Guess I need to just roast them whole, until an antidote can be
revealed.

I wear snug fitting gloves when dealing with hot chilis. I get the latex
type. The last time I bought some I think they were in the paint aisle at
Home Depot. When I'm done I peel them off & throw them away.
