This hot honey recipe uses a genius technique to make spicy honey that is perfectly thick and pourable, every time. It’s hot, sweet, floral, and just tangy enough to keep you drizzling!

Steps
Combine honey, hot sauce, and chile flakes in a 2-cup glass measuring cup.
Heat in the microwave for 1 minute, stir, then heat in 20-second intervals until reduced to a generous 1/2 cup (about 8 total intervals). Watch it closely to prevent bubbling over the top.
Strain into a clean jar and discard chile flakes. Use warm or cool to room temperature.
