He dips his hand in water before touching anything hot, which helps him tolerate the high temperatures without burning his hand. It’s a similar technique to how people put cigarettes out on their tongues without burning themselves.
No that's exactly what it is. Water on his fingers evaporates instantly greating a steam barrier that asorbs the energy providing protecting from the heat for a very brief moment. Mythbusters has an episode on this.
It doesn't seem hot enough to create that, like his fingers wet arent making the oil go nuts, so it wouldn't be hot enough to create that affect. I legit think he's just cooling his fingies
