Hot Honey Vinegar Condimento

Handcrafted from real Italian honey and Calabrian chili flakes, our hot honey vinegar offers a stunning golden hue with bright red flecks of real chili pepper suspended within. Its tangy-sweet heat is ideal for sauces, glazing shrimp, dipping, grilling marinades, wings, dressings and more.  Sweet, tangy, and warmly spicy, Hot Honey Vinegar delivers golden honey-style sweetness with Calabrian chili heat and bright Italian vinegar tang. Drizzle it over pizza, wings, roasted vegetables, shrimp, Brie, grilled meats, and cheese boards, or whisk it into dressings, BBQ sauces, and finishing glazes for an addictive sweet-heat finish.

Combine 2 parts Olive Oil with 1 part Hot Honey Vinegar Condimento.  Whisk together and serve.  To emulsify dab in a small amount of Dijon mustard or light mayo and continue whisking.  Oil and balsamic will become creamy in appearance.  Refrigerate remaining amount for up to 3 days.

Combine equal parts Hot Honey Vinegar with equal parts Olive Oil. We recommend preparing just enough to cover the protein. Place in zip-lock bag and squeeze out air. Place in refrigerator for at least six hours.

Note: For Fish, Seafood (catches from the water) we recommend rubbing the Olive Oil into the raw protein in the absence of the balsamic vinegar for approximately 30 minutes. We recommend NOT using balsamic during the marinade step to prevent the acidic balsamic from breaking down the delicate protein.  Instead, combine Olive Oil of choice and Hot Honey and use to drizzle over the finished product.

Our authentic barrel-aged Italian balsamics are naturally reduced through the aging process and without the addition of thickening agents such as high fructose corn syrup or molasses.  If you desire a thicker balsamic to use as a glaze or reduction then simply heat two times the amount needed in a small saucepan over medium to medium-high heat with constant stirring.  As the balsamic starts to reduce it will pull to the sides of the pan.  Remove reduction from heat just prior to desired thickness, as the balsamic will continue to reduce until cooled.  Alternatively, reduce to desired thickness and place reduction in bowl over an ice bath.  As a rule of thumb 1/4 cup will reduce to approximately 50% within 3-5 minutes.  Reductions or “glazes” can be used as BBQ sauces, finishing glazes for fish, drizzled over ice cream.

Using our Hot Honey Vinegar Condimento is super simple and if you can use a tablespoon, which we know you can, then you can master any application.  Please keep in mind; flavors are fairly flexible across recipes.  For example, if a recipe calls for Hot Honey and you only have Honey Ginger, Tahitian Vanilla, or Fig Balsamic we’d say go for it.  Most importantly, experiment and have fun!
