Many people think crystallized honey is no good. This is far from
the truth. All good honey will crystallize with a few exceptions. I
define good honey as any honey that is not over heated during the
extracting or bottling process. (See the raw honey news item for good
honey explanation)
DO NOT ADD WATER TO YOUR HONEY!!!! WATER IS THE ONLY THINK THAT CAN
CAUSE HONEY TO SPOIL!!!!!
If your honey is crystallized there are several ways to liquefy it.
1) If you have a warm day put it on your car dashboard. Depending on the amount in the container 2-3 hours and it will be just like the day it was bought.
2) Put in hot tap water until it liquefies. DO NOT BOIL IT!!
3) Put it in the microwave for 15-20 seconds let it set 2-3 minutes, shake it then repeat. If there is a small amount of honey put in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Do this until it gets liquid. Do not try to get it clear like when it was purchased you will over heat it and ruin the honey. Just get it liquid and do not worry about the crystals still floating.
