Fresno Chile

How can you look at this and not crave brisket tacos?

Slicing the scallion greens and chile at an extreme diagonal makes for a pleasing presentation.

Store honey in a cool, dark place (like the fridge!) to slow oxidation and make it last a while. Then use it on pretty much everything.

For the most vibrant, striking hue, stick with one type of pepper.

Faster! Faster! Skip the pickling and just top the curry with sliced fresh Fresno chiles. Or leave them out altogether if you’re spice-averse.

“These are inspired by an ‘egg shooter’ at NYC’s Blue Ribbon Downing Street Bar.” –Allie Lewis Clapp, food editor

This is a sambal-style hot sauce named after its creator, senior associate food editor Alison Roman.

Serve these spicy shrimp over greens or on their own as a pre-dinner snack.
