Personally, when I get a bit of the Hunan Hand, I grab some onion, a tomato, bit of cumin, oregano, some lime, mix it all up in a bowl with my hands, and just eat. Suck them fingers good, or invite a friend to do so. (Chips not recommended. Ouch.)
Or if I'm in a different mood, I set up my massage chair on the corner with a sign, 'Free Hand-O-God Massage and Absolution (donations encouraged)'.
Hunan Hand is one of life's simple pleasures.
Peace, Hendrix, and Chiles.......
