Ingredients

  • 8-10 large cayenne chilies
  • 1 shallot onion

  • 1 cup Fuzzy Bum Honey
  • Maldon sea salt to taste

Method

  1. Prep the ingredients: Dice the shallot and chilies, removing the seeds if you prefer a milder heat level.
  2. Sauté the aromatics: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the diced shallots and sauté until fragrant. Toss in the chilies and cook until they turn slightly golden.
  3. Infuse the honey: Lower the heat and slowly add your Fuzzy Bum Honey to the pan. Stir gently for 3-5 minutes to infuse the flavors while preventing the honey from burning or sticking.
  4. Season and cool: Turn off the heat and add Maldon sea salt to taste. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
  5. Store or serve: Pour the Chilli Honey into a serving bowl for immediate use, or transfer it to a jar and refrigerate for 3-5 days to allow the flavors to deepen.
  6. Storage tips: Store your Hot Chilli Honey in the fridge for up to 2-4 weeks.
