The main heat is in the seeds AND the white membrane. Cut the jalapenos in half, get rid of those 2 items and then they are easy to use. Most jalapenos are not too hot either, so once you get rid of the seeds and membrane, you just have a nice spiced pepper flavor.
Just DON'T scrape the seeds out with your thumb! Under your fingernail will burn for a long time. :-) use a knife. samala -------Original Message------- A couple of times when my son sauteed jalapenos, we've all started coughing and running to raise the windows. I wonder how you're supposed to cook them if you want a few with your fajitas.
