Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup honey
- 3 tbsp hot sauce (Louisiana style)
- ½ tsp dried red pepper flakes
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of honey, 3 tablespoons of hot sauce, and ½ teaspoon of dried red pepper flakes. Stir with a whisk or spoon until blended; look for a uniform golden hue.
- Give your mixture a taste! If you like more heat, feel free to add an extra splash of hot sauce or additional red pepper flakes.
- Transfer your hot honey into a clean, sealed jar. This helps preserve its flavor!
- Allow the hot honey to sit for about 30 minutes at room temperature. This resting period helps the flavors meld beautifully.
- For immediate use, enjoy your hot honey over pizzas, fried chicken, or in your favorite cocktails. Otherwise, refrigerate it for up to 6 months—though I doubt it will last that long!
Notes
Ensure your mixture has a smooth texture with no lumps. Store hot honey in an airtight container at room temperature for about a month.
