My brother grew hot peppers in garden this past summer and has dried them. He gave me a jar, so I think I will make him some hot honey using his hot peppers for Christmas gift this year. My family if full of cooks and we all have our own specialties and in lieu of material gifts we give the gifts of our labor in the kitchen to one another. Can't wait to see what he thinks of your hot honey! TYVM!
The dried chile version is more appealing visually and texturally. The fresh chile version is probably more versatile, as it's kind of a sleeper. You could probably even make homemade ice cream with that.
Followed this recipie and really enjoeyd the end result. Scotch bonnets were a great choice and i added a little rosemary and thyme during the infusion. 10/10.
I must be sIow. I got a pizza coupon last week and it was for hot honey pizza. I thought, gee, I think I'd reaIIy Iike that, never heard of it. I Iove the hot/ sweet combo. EarIier I saw a vid of some woman making it and boiIing the heck out of it, and decided that didn't make sense. I'm SO HAPPY to see an approach that makes more sense. I am going to make this soon!! I"M DROOLlNG NOW!! : )
I did ground dried pods 4 weeks ago,let the honey & heat sit 2 weeks before touching it it came out great, my fellow hot heads in work thought the same
My favorite part is making your own hot honey is way cheaper than the commercial brands. Once you make your own you'll never buy store bought again. Thanks for the video.
Man thank you I can’t wait to try it on my pizza & fries chicken! It’s so expensive to buy it. Now I can make it! What’s the best way to store it and shelf life?
Sup mike, the first one I never made like that before, mixing in gochugaru with crushed red pepper chilies and the apple cider vinegar I love it, be awesome unstrained, private stash lol, already thinking wings🤤👊. I make 2nd way but never added ACV, makes sense, great on chicken and waffles, vanilla ice cream.. 🤤, tyvm tc 🌶️
@@ChiliPepperMadness it went really well! i made a very small batch, about 5 Oz of honey, I am going to a small get-together on the 17th and planning on making a bunch for the party! awesome recipe thank you!
I have a lot of super hots that a mild frost got on yesterday. Leaves are drooping so I'm going to salvage all I can . Going to make pepper sauce this weekend and planned on freezing the rest. I was wondering if you have ever used Ghost or Reapers in your honey mix?.? Thought about trying some after seeing this video.
Gonna smoke a ham tomorow at work! But first im gonna use your video as an inspiration to craft my hot honey to coat and glaze my ham with! Any other suggestions you could add would be great!
Hot honey has become one of my favorite things. Gonna get a lot of mileage out of this video, and save some cash while I'm at it. Think I might experiment with ghost pepper.
I love your channel. Thanks! I have been wondering about something though. I see you chopping and handling the peppers without gloves. If I did that even the slightest bit my hands burn for a long time. Just curious… do yours burn and you just don’t care or are you immune? 😊
Thanks! Yes, peppers don't really bother my hands, but I DO recommend gloves for most people, as the peppers can cause a lot of irritation. I usually wear them when working with a lot of superhots.
I mean honey usually lasts near forever if it's not contaminated, so I think you are fine to just store it closed in a jar. Just be sure all your cookware is clean and the jar is sterilized. Refrigeration will definitely help, thought it will cause honey to crystalize quicker (still safe to eat).
Your hot honey should last around 3 months, but good luck not eating it all before then! If you're making hot honey with chili flakes then pantry storage is fine, but hot honey made with fresh peppers is more perishable and should be stored in the fridge.
@@ChiliPepperMadness Thank you. BTW I made your blackened fish recipe last week and again yesterday, my partner says it's the best seasoning on fish he's ever tasted. Made again yesterday and it will be a regular on our weekly meal plan.🙂
Hot honey made with fresh peppers is more perishable, and should be stored in the refrigerator. Hot honey made with dried peppers can be stored in a cool, dry place in an airtight container for 3 months or longer.

You don't really ruin it, you still get great flavor. If you're worried about losing any specific nutritional benefits from your honey (such as with raw honey), you can, of course, use your simple infusion method. I prefer this way.
