Is honey any good after it crystalizes?
Great question. Often mistaken for sugaring, many folks mistakenly think that honey gone hard is no longer any good. Wrong!! Nearly all pure honeys crystalize over time, some quite fast and others quite slowly depending on the floral source and balance of fructose and glucose in the nectar. To return it to its liquid state, simply place jar in a saucepan with several inches of water (double boiler style) and heat water on stove on low heat. Stir honey occasionally and it will return to liquid state. Fact of the matter is that honey that granulates indicates its purity and unrefined nature (non-pasteurized, raw status). Honey that has been severely heated actually loses nutritional value! There is NO sugar in our honey! Ever! Period.
