Always soak fingers in milk immediately after handling hot peppers. You will save yourself and your eyes so much grief later!I like to think my kitchen "accidents" are akin to Tim the Tool Man Taylor's
home improvement accidents - minus the hospital visits.What's been your stupidest kitchen accident?
Mine was when I almost chopped off part of my finger with a chef's knife. But the Multiple Injuries Award goes to the times I've 1) Grated my knuckles with the cheese grater and 2) Burned my hand on the saute pan that I just took out of the oven. I have learned my lesson on the latter, however, and keep an oven mitt securely on the handle until the pan cools.
