Let me tell you something, this spice honey is a game changer. The main purpose of this was to make flavoured honey to use with charcuterie at home. Honey is often served with a variety of cheeses or cured meats. I decided to try and infuse the honey…just to add a little flavour. It’s turned out to be such a fantastic item to have on hand because now I have been adding it to salad dressings and in my meat marinades. It also elevates a baked brie, literally takes it to a whole new level. Simply pour some over the brie wheel after baking it in the oven until for about 12-15 minutes at 350°F.


You can always pour it into smaller jars and use them as little hostess gifts, which is what I am planning to do.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup of honey

  • 2 large sprigs of fresh mint

  • 1 tbsp of red chilli flakes

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Leave the mint sprigs whole since they will be easier to pull out. In a small pot, add your honey, fresh mint and chilli flakes.

  2. Heat on low heat for about 20 minutes and stir occasionally. It is so important to make sure this never comes to a boil because your honey will burn.

  3. After 20 min, remove from heat and pour into a jar and let cool for about 20 minutes. Since honey has a long shelf life, you can keep this in the refrigerator and use it within one year.
