"What's the hottest thing you've got?"

I get that question a few times a day. Every market, every event, somebody walks up to the table and asks it.

My answer was always the same. I'm about flavor, not heat. Which is true. I have never been interested in making something that just hurts.

But I hated giving that answer. The people asking weren't looking for a lecture about flavor. They wanted heat, I didn't have it for them, and they'd nod and buy something else and I'd feel like I'd let them down a little.

Here is the thing though. I am a spicy gal. I eat the hot stuff. And this is alchemy, it is the whole job. There was no good reason I couldn't make something genuinely hot that also tastes like something.

So I spent the last few months on it.

Extra Hot Honey Is Here

Same honey, same squeeze bottle, a lot more chili. It is not hot for the sake of being hot. The sweetness is still there, the flavor still lands first. The heat just doesn't wait around this time.

Regular Hot Honey builds slow. This one arrives.

Where to Put It

  • Fried chicken, the classic turned up.
  • Pizza, especially pepperoni, especially the last slice.
  • Tacos and wings, where heat belongs anyway.
  • Sharp cheddar and goat cheese, which hold their own against it.
  • A spicy margarita or a hot honey old fashioned.
  • Straight off the spoon, if you insist.

Hot or Extra Hot

Hot Honey is the crowd pleaser. The heat shows up after the sweetness and it works on everything, breakfast included. Extra Hot is for chili heads. More burn, less patience. If your house disagrees about spice, grab one of each.

If you have ever asked me that question at a market, this one is for you. It is the answer I wanted to give you.
