Taste of Honey

Honey is a lot like olive oil, how do you know what type to select from the store shelf? Are all honey bears created equal? What makes one variety of honey different from another? Which is better for baking and which is best for savoury dishes? Why is one darker than another in colour, what does that mean? All these questions and more will be answered in Taste of Honey. Veteran cookbook author, Marie Simmons, helps readers understand the life of a bee, and how the territory of its habitat influences both the colour and flavour of the honey they produce. Then she explains how these flavour profiles are best paired with certain ingredients in over 60 simple, delicious recipes such as: Honey French Toast with Peaches with Honey and Mint, Salmon with Honey, Miso and Ginger Glaze, Pear, Stilton and Bacon Salad with Honey Dressing and Honey Glazed Pecans, Honey Pear Tart with Honey Butter Sauce.
