Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pour 1 cup of Swan Valley Honey into the pan and add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped ginger root. You can add a pinch of ground ginger for extra taste, completely optional.
  2. Heat for around 10 minutes at 35 degrees C, making sure not to go over 40 degrees C.
  3. Take off the heat and let mixture infuse for around 2 hours. After infusion, strain if you like, and then place into jar.
  4. If crystals form, set the honey (in its jar) in a pot of gently simmered water. The crystals will “melt” and your honey will be smooth again.
