Notes
*NOTE: if you have never chopped fresh jalapenos before, I recommend wearing food safe gloves. Either way, be very careful and don't touch your mouth, nose or eyes (they will burn) during the preparation process (try not to touch the inside of the pepper). If your hands begin to sting, soak them in milk.
