Honey Sriracha Recipe FAQs
Sriracha honey sauce is a blend of sriracha, honey, garlic, rice vinegar, and soy sauce. It's sweet, tangy, and has a bit of heat. Hot honey perfectly balances out the spicy tang for a sauce that is finger-licking delicious on everything from spicy honey chicken to beef, and even roasted vegetables.
It sure is. But it's easy to adjust the spice level to your taste. Use more or less sriracha depending on how spicy you want the sauce to be. The sweet, soothing honey balances out the flavors well.

John R says
Why does this need to be cooked to a boil and does it need refrigeration?
Seems like one could just mix it and whip it up be done?
Thanks
Isabel Laessig says
Hi John! You boil the sauce to thicken it - this will give it a nice, glaze-like consistency. You could definitely mix it all together without cooking it and it'd be fine to eat, but the consistency wouldn't be the same at all. Store in the refrigerator in a jar or other airtight container and you're good to go! Thanks for your question!

This Honey Sriracha Sauce is outstanding! I have used only authentic Asian ingredients like the Kikkoman Naturally Brewed Tamari Soy Sauce. It's the best honey sriracha sauce indeed. Perfect for my favorite spring roll.
