cayenne, pepper

• To prevent frostbite on fingers and toes, sprinkle cayenne pepper into your socks and mittens before going outside.
• If it’s not cold in your part of the world right now, you might want to prepare this frostbite remedy well in advance of the next winter: Soak 2 tbsp of whole black pepper corns and 1 tbs of ginger roots and horseradish, both coarsely grated, in 1-1/4 cups of white wine for a week.  Filter, strain, and store away in a tightly stoppered bottle in a cool, dark place until the next winter.  In case of frostbite, apply the solution generously with a brush on affected parts.
