I'll toss in my 3› worth. I used to, and on rare occasions still do, use milk
(whole big FAT milk, yummy). I seem to recall, I read somewhere, that capsicum
attaches itself to fat globules (think cheese). But I generally cook my own
Tex-Mex now days and control the heat to "my way". Everybody slip up
occasionally and it sneaks up on you. :-)
Off on a tangent - When I worked on a salmon seiner in Ketchikan we used a can
of evaporated milk, catch a lot of jellyfish in those nets, and when the net
goes over the powerblock it starts raining pieces. And for something
completely different, when I got nailed by a Portuguese Man 'O War, when I was
a kid in Hawaii, the medic put ammonia on it (but I see on Wikipedia that's
really, really not recommended for jellyfish since it's an apples & oranges
situation).
