Versatile and Delicious
Once your garlic and chili-infused honey sauce is ready, the possibilities are endless! Here are just a few ways you can enjoy this flavorful sauce:
Spread it over toast, bagels, crumpets, or soft pretzels for a spicy kick.
Use it as a marinade or dip for your favorite proteins, especially seafood dishes like coconut shrimp.
Turn it into a dressing by adding a bit of olive oil for a tangy twist.
Drizzle it over pizza, wraps, or roasted, broiled, and sautéed veggies for an extra burst of flavor.
Add a dollop to your grilled cheese sandwich for a unique twist.
Serve it with a cheese platter, pairing it with cheeses like goat’s cheese, ricotta, halloumi, or baked camembert/brie.
Enjoy it with egg dishes, such as healthy omelets, scrambled eggs, or tofu.
Enhance your favorite avocado toast or guacamole with a drizzle of this spicy honey sauce.
And if you prefer a sweet version without the garlic, simply omit it and use the chili-infused honey as a topping for cakes, sweetbreads, ice cream, yogurt bowls, or even grilled fruits like watermelon or peaches.
Storage and Shelf Life
Due to the presence of garlic, it is recommended to store the garlic and chili-infused honey sauce in the refrigerator and consume it within 2 weeks. However, if you choose to make the sauce without garlic, it can be kept in the fridge or a cool, dark cupboard for up to 3 months. If you use fresh chilies, aim to use the sauce within several weeks and store it in the fridge. Just keep in mind that if you refrigerate the honey, it will solidify to some extent, so make sure to bring it to room temperature before using.
