Blog navigationHoney, the oldest natural delicacy. What should you know before buying it?
Honey, with its diversity of flavors, colors and textures, is one of the oldest and most versatile foods. From rosemary honey to chestnut honey, including more exotic varieties, this sweet nectar is a gastronomic and nutritional treasure. In this article we present the different varieties of honey, their properties, and everything you need to know to enjoy this product to the fullest.
Varieties of honey: one for every palate
Honey comes in a variety of types, each with unique characteristics.
-
Rosemary honey, for example, stands out for its smooth, floral flavor, making it ideal for spreading on toast or sweetening herbal teas. Its light color makes it recognizable and appreciated.
-
On the other hand, chestnut honey is less sweet and has a velvety consistency, which makes it an excellent choice for cooking. An example of its culinary use is a baked lamb shoulder painted with this honey, creating a gourmet delight.
-
Oak honey, with its dark color and intense flavor, is especially valued for its richness in minerals.
-
Finally, milflores honey, as its name suggests, comes from a variety of flowers, offering a wealth of flavors and aromas without a specific predominant one.
Is it better to sweeten with honey or sugar?
Although both honey and sugar are composed mostly of sucrose, honey also contains a variety of vitamins and minerals that refined sugar does not.
Among the nutrients found in honey are vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and vitamin C, as well as minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and zinc. In addition, honey is rich in antioxidants, such as phenols and flavonoids, which help fight oxidative stress in the body. However, it is important to consume honey in moderation due to its high caloric content.
Benefits of honey
Honey is not only delicious, but also offers multiple health benefits. It has antibacterial and antiseptic properties, which has made it a natural remedy for treating wounds and burns since ancient times. It also aids in digestion and can alleviate minor digestive problems. In addition, it is a very effective natural remedy for relieving coughs and sore throats. Thanks to its high content of natural carbohydrates, honey is an excellent source of quick energy.
How to buy honey?
Buying high quality honey can be a complicated task due to the wide variety available. At Jamonarium, we make sure to customize the product for each customer, understanding that each person has different preferences and needs. Our goal is to provide a unique and satisfying experience for each buyer.
Here are some recommendations to make sure you get the perfect honey:
1. Decide what type of honey you want
-
Monofloral: These honeys come predominantly from a single flower. For example, rosemary honey is smooth and floral, while chestnut honey is less sweet and has a velvety consistency.
-
Multifloral or milflores: These honeys come from a variety of flowers, offering a rich blend of flavors and aromas without a specific predominant one.
2. Consider texture and consistency
-
Liquid: Honey perfect for sweetening beverages and for use in cooking recipes.
-
Crystallized: Honey ideal for spreading on toast or for use in baking.
-
Creamy: Honey easy to spread and with a smooth texture, perfect for breakfast.
3. Think about what you will use it for
-
To sweeten drinks: Soft honeys such as rosemary or acacia are ideal.
-
For cooking: More intensely flavored honeys, such as chestnut, are excellent for marinades and sauces.
-
For therapeutic uses: Honey rich in antioxidants and with antibacterial properties, such as oak honey, are recommended.
Every jar of honey hides a long history. Enjoy the taste of honey in all its varieties and discover its countless health benefits. Don't wait any longer to take advantage of all the benefits honey has to offer.
