Delicious lavanda honey

A déguster au petit déjeuner de l'Escale Provençale : Miel de lavande
Lavender honey

Honey is an authentic natural food accessible to humans throughout their history. That is why honey deserves to be better known. Hard or liquid? Good to know, all honeys initially are liquid. Then a temperature of +/- 35-40 ° C  keeps the honey in this state. But after extraction and potting, each honey can crystallize more or less quickly depending on the origin of the nectar.
On one hand a honey containing more fructose than glucose, like acacia honey, will take longer to crystallize. On the other hand, a honey whose nectar is richer in glucose, will crystallize more quickly, like heather honey.
