おはようございます。KANOです。今回はこちらの記事から。
唐辛子などの調理時に「炭酸ジュース」を使うと辛味がなくなるよという話。
これ、辛いものと合わせる飲み物としては納得感ある。炭酸って舌に刺激を与えるから、辛さがごまかされるというか。・・料理の話じゃなくてすみませんｗ
scorching
意味 焼けつくような, 焦げるような, 猛烈な暑さの.
While an episode of “Hot Ones” might have a glass of milk ready for its guests, that beverage may not be the only way to temper the scorching spice from chili peppers. A lime-sugar soda might be the bubbly way to extinguish the flames.

Hot Ones大好きなYouTubeなんだけど、ゲストによって見苦しい回があるので注意w
pith
意味 [通例 the ～][植] 髄 (スポンジ状の柔らかい組織); （オレンジなどの皮の内側の） 白い線状部分.
Peppers are spicy due to their capsaicin levels. Even though some people subscribe to the idea that removing seeds, piths, and veins can reduce spiciness, some peppers still have an inherent heat. If eliminating that ingredient from a recipe is not possible, a soak in lemon-lime soda can be the solution. The idea is that the sugar and acid in the beverage can bring that intense flavor in check.

いわゆる「わた」の部分のことね。
counteract
意味 （反作用で）〈(悪) 影響· 病状など〉を和らげる, 阻止 [防止] する.
When cooks heard about the lemon-lime soda hack to reduce a pepper’s spice level, some wondered why this scientific reaction works. Cooks have come to appreciate that adding a sugar component to an overly spicy recipe can put it back in balance. As the pepper soaks in the liquid, the sugar helps to counteract the capsaicin in the pepper.

douse
意味 〈火〉を消す.
Although sugar is a significant component, some people think that the acid from the lime works to douse the pepper’s fiery flames. This idea is similar to how some Asian dishes use a touch of lime to lessen the bold Thai chili flavor in a dish. While the acid note does help, it may not be as powerful as sugar’s impact. In this case, grabbing the lime soda might not be necessary. A sugar water bath might be as effective as popping open that soda can.

sugarよりもacidの方が辛味おさまる気がするけどな。
soil
意味 [種類では通例[C]]（植物の育つ） 土, 土壌 （earth や (主に米)dirt も植物が育つ土· 土壌をさすが, 土の特性や状態を示す場合は通例 soil を用いる）
With Shishito peppers, it is hard to tell the spiciest from the mildest pepper on the plate. Each vegetable reacts differently to the soil and other growing elements, which impacts the final taste. Unfortunately, in this pepper-picking scenario, it is the luck of the draw.

ししとうって、ほんとたまーに当たりがあるよねw 当たりは唐辛子を超えるw
tried and true
意味 実証済みの.
Otherwise, the tried-and-true pepper prep methods apply. Removing the seeds and the pith should reduce potential spice spikes. And, if a person is spice-adverse, they should educate themselves on pepper types. There is a big difference in the flavor between a green pepper and a pepper x. Even the best soda hack may not efficiently squash the spice in that extreme vegetable.
