o Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

2. Grill the Panela Cheese

o Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat and brush with olive oil.

o Place the Panela cheese slices on the pan and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and slightly softened.

Cooking and Serving Tips

• Adjusting Spice Level: For a milder flavor, reduce the amount of Thai chili pepper or remove the seeds.

• Variations: Substitute Panela cheese with Halloumi or Queso Blanco for a different texture.

• Storage: Best enjoyed immediately; however, any leftover chili honey can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
