Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup honey
- 3 teaspoons red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 3 teaspoons hot sauce of your choice
Instructions
- Heat the Honey: Place 1 cup of honey in a small pot and warm it over medium heat on the stovetop until it becomes more liquid and easier to stir, about 2 minutes. Heating loosens the honey’s natural thickness without boiling.
- Add Spices: Stir in 3 teaspoons of hot sauce and 3 teaspoons of red pepper flakes into the heated honey. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes and hot sauce according to your preferred spice level, blending the mixture thoroughly to combine all flavors.
- Store and Serve: Pour the hot honey mixture into glass jars while still warm. Allow it to cool to room temperature before sealing and storing. This condiment can be used immediately to enhance your dishes or stored for later use.
Notes
- Adjust the quantity of red pepper flakes and hot sauce to control the heat level.
- This hot honey pairs well with pizza, fried chicken, roasted veggies, and cheese boards.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month.
- Heating honey gently preserves its natural flavor and beneficial properties.
