Not a dolt. Because, the other tip said to put the veggie oil on BEFORE you cut. Sort of the same slippery slope.DUH I'm such a dolt sometimes. That makes perfect sense.
I like the wine idea in the link. And nothing would go to waste . I just have to remember to try and touch as little as I can. Leaving pepper residue on things I touch that my wife later touches has put me in the doghouse a number of times.Hot Pepper Hands: An Easy Way to Stop the Burn | The Kitchn

My idea would be to mix baking soda into a paste and apply that to your hands. Baking soda is alkaline, while peppers are acidic, so that should cause a pH balance to occur removing the acid. Vinegar is also alkaline, but the odor might be difficult to control.

Kind of an aside, but maybe my question can be answered here. I grow Hungarian Wax hot peppers (the only kind I like). I pick them from the garden and slice them up. I’ll wash my hands with soap and water afterwards up to 4 times. Still, if I touch my hands anywhere near my eyes up to 5 hours afterwards I go temporarily blind with pain for about half an hour, and often have to flush them. Is there a trick to getting the pepper heat from your hands after slicing hot peppers?
Wash with vodka, are you insane?! Oh the waste!!! The humanity!!! The insanity!!!Hi.
Use disposable rubber gloves next time.
*Wash* your hands with tomato sauce, vodka or WD-40.
Being Hispanic, when we enchilar our hands handling peppers we rub our hands through hair. (Just use washing motions through human hair. Works.)
Peace.
I dunno. I wash my hands beforehand anyway. Pour the vodka over the hands and over a bowl. Then partake in Hot Shots. Sounds kinda interesting.Wash with vodka, are you insane?! Oh the waste!!! The humanity!!! The insanity!!!
LOL. Once it was so bad, she told me to go get a hotel room because she didn't want to see me and would kill me if I stuck around. The pain she experienced in her eyes was so extreme that I didn't argue and felt lucky to get out of the house. But I just slept in the car out in the driveway.Uh huh, wise marriage lessons.

BTW, I'd pay a pretty penny for an example of your cooking, Siggy.
Flour tortillas for bean & cheese burritos or turkey or ground beef tacos (with all the fixins). I make my own flour tortillas, but have no idea how to make corn.
Corn tortillas for carne asada or al pastor tacos, or for tostadas.
We seriously love our tacos at this house
