DIY Hot Honey

Hot honey. An easy and elegant appetizer.
Course: condiment
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup honey
  • 1-2 tsp chili pepper flakes
  • 1-2 tsp apple cider vinegar

Method
 

  1. Gently warm the honey either in the microwave or in a small pot over low heat on the stove. Once the honey starts to thin out, remove from the heat and add chili flakes.
  2. Allow to cool completely before adding the vinegar.  Do a taste test to see if you need more vinegar.
  3. Store in a covered container for up to three months.  Do not place the honey in the fridge as it will crystallize.

The Culinary Chase’s Note

The Culinary Chase’s Note:

Amp up the heat and use fresh peppers such as banana, jalapeño or habanero. Slice and let them mingle with the honey. Enjoy!
