How To Slice A Chili Pepper

A nicely ripened red hot chili pepper from our backyard wooden tub garden

Here's a tip for cutting chilies: use a knife and fork. Also, if you touch a chili pepper, never touch any part of your body without first washing your hands. Unless you're a masochist. I once accidentally rubbed my eye... and regretted for many burning hours afterwards. Since then, I use a fork to hold down the stem part, then slice with knife. (The same goes if you have pets. Do your furry friends a favour; don't touch them until you wash your hands.)
