It depends on the recipe but there are a few general options:
1. Creams/milks can be added and they actually help neutralize the spice of the cayenne.
2. Starches like rice, pasta, or potatoes can also help absorb some of the heat
3. Sugar can also be added to help counteract the heat of the spice.

Can you use red pepper instead of cayenne in cheese straws?
You can, but the final product will not be the same. The point of using cayenne rather than red pepper flakes is that you want an even distribution of the spice throughout the final product creating a faint background of Chile heat, rather than the concentrated bits of pepper flake making each bite different in its amount of spiciness. It won't necessarily be a bad product, it just won't be quite what you were trying to make. Even if you use less red pepper flakes than the cayenne called for, it will taste spicier in a way your original recipe wouldn't. I'd recommend either leaving the ingredient out or substituting hot paprika
How do you tone down barbecue sauce?
If a jambalaya dish is too spicy, there are two possible ways to make it less spicy. # Add more cooked, unseasoned rice (may require coloring to match existing dish) # Add one or more uncooked, peeled potatoes, in large slices (heat in dish, then remove, or serve separately once fully cooked) Of course, the easiest way is to use less pepper when first making the recipe.

How does one lessen the heat of cayenne pepper in a pulled pork recipe?
I know of three ways. 1. Use less of it. 2. Soak it in water for awhile, then drain and let dry. (not powdered) 3. There are 3 main types of pepper. Black, Red, and White. Black burns the tounge, red burns the mouth, white burns the throat. If something has too much red pepper (burns the mouth) then put more black AND white pepper in it. The sensation of heat is largely due to the contrasting taste buds. Some are overly stimulated, while others are not. if you level out the stimulation, the senses are not SHOCKED and you will have a more full flavor with less sting.

This well depend upon how you make your chicken curry. If you have a specific recipe, you can add more ingredients from your recipe that aern't spicy, epically if it calls for dairy products like yogurt, sour cream, milk, cheese, etc. If the curry is the only thing that is spicy you can cut the amount of curry that it calls for in half and replace the other half with just a basic poultry seasoning.

Anything can be harmful if not given in proper amounts... however, Cayenne Pepper is actually beneficial to dogs when administered properly. Perhaps the greatest natural stimulant known, Cayenne has been called the single greatest "driver" of other herbs. No other herb is quite in this class making it a must for all formulas. Simply said, when you need to get an herb to any location in the body cayenne reins supreme. The uses of cayenne are so numerous that it has been claimed "the single greatest herb." Some of the common uses are anal problems (to include hemorrhoids), heart attack, toothache, external bleeding, diphtheria, all sorts of eye conditions, wounds of all types, clearing the mucous membranes etc. Cayenne pepper is derived from the fruit berry of Capsicum annum, a tropical shrub. In folk medicine, it has been used for fevers, sore throats, respiratory infections, asthma, and digestive disturbances. Recent studies however, have shown that it can reduce the risk of developing arteriosclerosis by lowering blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Regions of the world where cayenne pepper is consumed regularly have shown much less incidence of cardiovascular disease. Additionally, one of its active ingredients, capsaicin, is effective in reducing pain (such as in arthritis) by acting as both an anti-inflammatory and a nerve blocking agent.
