What to do with Honey....lots and lots of Honey!
| # | Post |

| 1 | I won a raffle (that's got to be a first!) and now I have about 7 quite large jars of various kinds of honey! Apart from having it on toast I have no idea what to do with so much of it, I would love to know if I could brew honeymead from it? Any suggestions out there in messageboardland? hogwort - 2013-09-10 21:49:00 |

| 17 | As winter begins, add some lemon zest and slices of lemons to a jar full that you have heated (only slightly) to mix in the zest and slices and leave in the fridge for a week, then use when you get a cold by the spoon full or with hot water, or to keep colds away.

| 23 | Congratulations ... lucky you... I don't buy honey normally as its too expensive.. neighbour gave us a pottle for walking their dog and I used it in marinades, baking and adding to oil based dressings ... When I was a child we used to split weetbix, put butter on it and clover honey ... delicious... Edited by karlymouse at 10:55 pm, Sat 11 Mar karlymouse - 2017-03-11 22:54:00 |

| 25 | Give some away for starters... And then use honey to replace sugar in everything. It takes a few days to get accustomed to the slight taste change, but it's worth it in the savings. I also preserve with it, make jams and jellies, and use it in baking - I use a three quarter ratio to the equivalent sugar weight and it seems to be fine. If it crystalises with long keeping, very gentle heating will return it to liquid - but don't over warm it as you'll destroy the health benefits. oh_hunnihunni - 2018-03-12 10:04:00 |
| 26 | since honey is so expensive, why don't you give some to your nearest foodbank? freesia - 2018-03-15 18:29:00 |
| 27 | Honey has become a luxury item and unaffordable for many. Share it with friends and family if you won't use it all yourself. lyingnun - 2018-03-15 18:33:00 |
| 28 | You can use it as a marinade on everything you would use sugar on, Or just eat it as a treat. In the olden days mum used to buy the honey in a bear and we'd eat it as a treat. Put it on toast, pancakes,crumpets. It's the only food that won't go off. Lemon & honey drink,grapefruit & honey drink, great for winter. Honey,mint & rosemary marinade for lamb. blueviking - 2018-03-15 20:14:00 |
