How to melt sugared honey

If your honey crystallized, it is not worth worrying because of this. This is a natural process, it does not lose its useful properties. However, sometimes it becomes necessary to melt honey, for example, to introduce it into the dough. It is quite simple to do it.

So, we will need: metal mesh (as for cleaning a saucepan), enameled bowl or glass, pan (larger diameter than a bowl). Fill the enameled bowl or glass of crystallized honey slightly more than half.

Fill with a saucepan with water and put on fire. When pairs go from the water, put on its bottom of the mesh. It will provide water circulation under the bowl. I put a bowl with honey on the grid. Water in a saucepan should cover the border of honey in a bowl, but not reach the edges of the bowl itself.

We make fire quieter, periodically stir honey in a bowl with a spoon. If the bowl stands on the grid unstable, it should be kept. Honey should not be heated to a temperature greater than 60 ° C. If honey is not old (he is not more than a year), the whole procedure will take about 10 minutes.

Cool honey to room temperature, place it in a clean bank, close to the plastic or iron lid. Store in a cool dry place.

Melted honey is preferably used as quickly as possible. If honey is crystallized again, it is not necessary to pull it, because In this case, it can lose the beneficial substances.
