What is Crystallized Honey?

Crystallization of honey occurs due to its chemical composition, specifically the ratio of glucose to fructose. Additionally, the temperature at which honey is stored can influence this process. Some types of honey naturally crystallize faster than others due to their unique properties.

Absolutely! Crystallization in our product occurs due to the natural crystallization of honey, which is used to preserve extracts from medicinal mushrooms and herbs. The product remains fully edible and retains all its nutritional benefits. If you prefer the product in liquid form, you can easily return it to its original state by warming it in a water bath.

We recommend avoiding direct heat for the product, including on the stove or in the microwave. Microwaving can cause uneven heating, potentially leading to overheating or localized hot spots. This can adversely affect the taste, texture, and even the nutritional value of the honey. For best results, use a water bath to gently return the product to its liquid state.

Prepare the Water Pot: Fill a suitably large pot with warm water. The water should be warm to the touch, but not hot, to prevent overheating the product.

Place the Jar of Honey in the Water: Gently place the jar of crystallized honey into the pot of warm water. Ensure the jar is securely closed to prevent any water from entering. The jar should be immersed in the water bath at least halfway to two-thirds of its height.

Choose a Low Temperature: Set the stove or cooker to a low setting. Once the water reaches the desired temperature of 40°C (104°F), you can turn off the burner and let the jar sit in the water bath to gradually warm up.

Check the Water Temperature: Insert a kitchen thermometer into the water, ensuring it is submerged but not touching the bottom of the pot. Wait a few minutes until the thermometer reads around 40°C (104°F). Regularly checking the water temperature will help you achieve the best results in removing crystallization while preserving the product's quality. Maintain a stable water temperature throughout the heating process.

Just Wait: Allow the honey to slowly dissolve and the crystals to melt. This process can take some time, depending on the amount and type of honey in the product

Check Consistency: Once the water reaches the desired temperature of 40°C (104°F), you can turn off the burner and let the product sit in the water bath. This will allow the honey to gradually return to a smooth, liquid consistency.

Now You Can Use the Honey: Your honey is now in liquid form and ready to use—enjoy.
