This glaze comes together on the stovetop by melting butter and honey with a touch of salt and vanilla until silky and pourable. Drizzle it over cornbread, biscuits, roasted vegetables, or grilled chicken for a glossy, sweet-savory finish. It thickens slightly as it cools, so brush it on while warm for the best spread.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon water

Method

  1. In a 6-quart saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter completely.

  2. Whisk in the honey, salt, and water, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring often.

  3. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

  4. Let the glaze cool for 5 minutes to thicken slightly before brushing or drizzling over warm food.
