Jalapeño Hot Honey
Jalapenos pair with honey to make a sweet and spicy sauce you'll want to have drizzled over everything.
Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 16 Ounces honey local if possible
- 3 jalapeños large
Instructions
- Evenly cut 3 jalapeños into slices about ½-inch thick.
- Pour the honey into a medium saucepan. Before turning on the heat, place the slices of jalapeños evenly in the honey around the pan.
- Turn the heat to medium low. As soon as the honey begins to bubble slightly (not a boil), turn the heat down to low and let the mixture heat through for 8 to 10 minutes stirring frequently.
- Take the pan off the heat and let the honey cool down for a few minutes while you prepare the jars.
- Wash your jars thoroughly and dry them well before pouring the honey in.
- After about 10 minutes of cooling, the honey will be ready to pour in the jar. Pour it through a sieve to remove the jalapeño slices and seeds.
- Note: I poured the honey in, leaving a few jalapeño slices so the honey would get hotter over time. This is optional, but if you want the honey to be more spicy leave more jalapeño slices in the jar when you pour in the honey.
- Close the lid tightly and leave out until it cools to room temperature before transferring to the refrigerator.
Notes
Spice level: Taste as you go since some jalapenos are hotter than others. Leave some of the jalapeno slices in the honey when transferring it into the jars for a hotter result.
Labeling the jars: Print the labels on regular paper or sticker paper for a fun look or if you're gifting it.
Warm it up before use: The honey thins a bit when heated. This makes it easier to drizzle over pizza, chicken or your dish of choice.
