Note
For a milder flavor, remove all white veins from the jalapeños as they contain most of the capsaicin.
These poppers can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
If you prefer a sharper taste, add a squeeze of lime juice or a dash of hot sauce to the filling.
Wear gloves when handling jalapeños to avoid transferring oils to your eyes or sensitive skin.
