Fresh is always best. Never use concentrated juice.

Because chile peppers contain that can burn your skin and volatile oils  that can burn your skin and eyes, avoid direct contact with them as much as possible. When working with chile peppers, wear rubber gloves. If your bare hands do touch the peppers, wash your hands and nails well with soap and warm water.
