Equipment
- 1 8 ounce canning jar (with lid)
Ingredients
- 1 cup honey
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chili flakes or 2 fresh Thai chilies
Instructions
- Heat the honey and chili in a sauce pan over medium low heat until you start to see small bubbles forming
- Turn off the heat and stir in the apple cider vinegar.
- Let it sit for 5 minutes then strain it into a glass jar.
- Serve drizzled over sweet or savory dishes.
Notes
- Don't let the honey boil or it will get too thick.
- If the honey start to crystallize, you can heat it in a warm water bath or just the microwave too.
- You can use other types of chilies - dried or fresh. If you use fresh, you need to store it in the fridge to keep the chilies from spoiling.
- If you want it to have a more savory quality, add ¼ to ½ teaspoon salt.
- Use hot sauce (like Louisiana hot sauce) in place of the vinegar if you prefer to add a little extra heat.
- Use lemon or lime juice in place of the vinegar if you want a slightly more citrusy quality.
