It's opened up every bit of sinuses and mucous membranes we have. I absent mindedly grabbed Rotel and when I looked afterwards I used the Hot.

Any way I can reclaim this dinner?

Cut up a few potatoes and throw them in. They will soak up some of the heat. Remove the potatoes or just leave them in big enough chunks that you can avoid serving them.

Add more dairy. You could also try adding some coconut milk. A sweetener will help as well...maybe a little honey, but taste it in between adding new ingredients. Diluting it is the only sure fire way. Could add more of whatever stock you used. If you have the ears of corn still, simmer them a bit and add corn stock.

corn on the cob will soak up heat, but since you already have cornot in it, that's what's holding the spicy in.

If you notice the next time you use Rotel, all the jalepenos will be in the bottom of the can. I scoop the tomato out first, and examine the quantity of jalapeño, and season my dish carefully the peppers. Add half a teaspoon of the peppers and taste it. You can always add more... And I only cook with the mild.

Once my daughter substituted habernaro for chili peppers in and Asian dish because the guy at Whole Foods told her they were similar. It was frickin hot like angel of death chicken wings.

Controlling heat in a dish with any diced peppers is difficult.

Remove half and add more stock, shrimp and whatever else you added before setting it on fire.

Do the same to the other half.
