Flash infusing is our new favorite kitchen trick. You get a lot of the flavor of slow-infusing in a tiny fraction of the time. Don’t worry if you don’t have a cream whipper handy, you can still make chile-infused alcohol. Just slow-infuse dried ghost chilies (or other dried chilies) using the technique in this ghost chile vodka recipe.
See How to Flash Infuse Alcohol for more infusion recipes.
