health food store) and 1/8 t of oil in 1 gallon water.

Cayenne pepper oil:

Heat 1 cup Corn Oil in a non-aluminum sauce pan to 225 degrees F. over  
moderately low heat.  Add 1/4 cup cayenne pepper, stir and cool to  
room temperature undisturbed.  Filter the oil mix slowly and patiently  
through one or more paper coffee filters into an impeccably clean jar.
