Ingredients

Directions

  1. Roast the red chilies over an open flame or under a broiler until the skins are blackened and blistered.
  2. Place the roasted chilies in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam for 10 minutes, which loosens the skins.
  3. Let the chilies cool slightly, then peel off the charred skins and remove the seeds.
  4. Combine the peeled chilies, honey, liquid smoke, and cognac in a food processor.
  5. Blend on high speed until the mixture forms a smooth, consistent paste.
  6. Transfer the paste to a saucepan and boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Ladle the hot paste into sterilized small glass jars, leaving a small headspace at the top.
  8. Seal the jars tightly and let them cool to room temperature before refrigerating.
  9. Store in the refrigerator for up to several months. Use with care due to the intense heat.
