Steps
- Prep the chiles: Rinse the 7 fresh whole red bird's-eye or other small hot chiles well, then use the tip of a sharp knife to cut a few small slits into each one — this helps their flavor and heat infuse into the heated honey.
- Simmer with the honey: Stir in the 0.5 cups clover honey, drop the heat to low, and let it simmer gently for 10 minutes.
- Cool and strain: Pour into a jar and let cool to room temperature. Fish out and discard the chiles once cooled. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
