Too much chile in the chili

Posted by Larkspur, September 11, 2009

The good news is that the hubby is learning to cook. The bad news is that capsasin is completely lost on him. Is there any way to take the heat out of a dish?

Options we've considered:
Adding more of everything else
Balancing flavors with sugar/salt/acid
Cutting up a potato and tossing it in to absorb the heat

What say you, eaters?
