Drink some milk. That is why they have that white stuff next to the salsa in Mexican restaurants, to counteract the spice. Yeah, water can actually make it worse.

ANSWER:If you use too much cayenne pepper in a dish, there is no real good way to diminish the heat. You can do one of two things. You can toss the dish in the trash if its too hot, or make another identical amount with no peppers in it and combine the two. This will lessen the pepper amount by half. ANSWER:Here in Louisiana we use lemon juice to counter an accidental "dumping" of too much cayenne (even though it's rare we could ever have too much!) If the sourness of the lemon is evident in what you are cooking, add a small amount of sugar to offset it. The trick is to add and taste as you go. I've also heard that lime juice will work, though I've never tried that myself.
Try putting either Lemon Juice in, or serve with Lemon cut into quarters to use to offset the pepper flavor.

Just tried this myself, as I have a too hot Chicken Chaussere Sauce (Coleman's Packet Mix) with too much pepper in the ingredients. It works! You'll need to add some sugar to counteract the sourness of the lemon, etc., but it does work.

When you have a hot Indian Curry from a restaurant, they often add 1/2 a proper lemon. This is to squeeze onto your curry and mix in to neutralize if too hot.
