as our resident gourmand chef I am hoping you can help. I bought a bottle of chilli infused olive oil and used it tonight for the first time

I used it like I do the normal olive oil, big mistake!

The chilli taste was so intense that nothing else could be tasted, the worst part was the concerted rush to the fridge for iced water.

Do you know how this is meant to be used, appreciate your help it cost a fair bit and I am banned from using it again until I sort it out
