Have a piece of bread

Chewing a piece of bread also provides some relief. Keeping it in your mouth longer helps absorb the spiciness, and the slight sweetness in the bread further aids in reducing the heat. It's even more effective if you combine the bread with fat, such as dipping it in a bit of olive oil or spreading it with cream cheese or butter.
