Hot Honey Sauce

Hot Honey Sauce is a sweet-and-spicy condiment made from honey and chili peppers, commonly used as a drizzle or dipping sauce for pizza, fried foods, chicken, vegetables, and sandwiches. It has a bold balance of heat and sweetness that makes it popular in American-style casual cooking. Nutritionally, Hot Honey Sauce is mostly carbohydrate from sugar, with very little fiber, protein, or fat. It is not a major source of vitamins or minerals, so it is best treated as a flavoring rather than a nutritious staple. Because it is so concentrated in sugar, it can add a lot of sweetness quickly even in small amounts. The spicy heat may help you use less of it, but it is still best enjoyed in moderation.
