Hot Honey<\/p>\nHot Honey<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1 cup honey<\/p>\n
3 tsp red chile pepper flakes, or about 5 small dried peppers, crushed<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Put honey and hot pepper flakes in a glass microwave safe jar. Microwave for 1 minute and stir to combine (the honey will become thinner and more fluid after it is heated.) We don\u2019t want the honey boil, as this will destroy some of its beneficial properties. Stir and let the honey steep for 15 minutes. Strain into a clean jar. Note: if your honey has cooled and thickened too much to be strained, gently heat it again to loosen it for straining. Honey will keep in an airtight jar in a cool dry place. Once you infuse honey with dried chile flakes I recommend using it within a 3-6 months. If you use fresh hot chiles you’ll want to store the strained honey in the refrigerator to reduce the risk of spoilage. When refrigerated, the hot honey should last for about 3-6 months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
