Of course not everything we by in the market have the quality we wish, of course the price is related to quality, but not always - especially when it comes to daily consumption.
In that sense we have found some tricks to distinguish the real honey form the fake one or the honey made with other compounds in order to seem as real honey.
To distinguish the honey of flowers from fake or not qualitative honey made with sugar or water you can perform these simple tests:
- Take a teaspoon of honey and pour into a glass of water. If the honey is melted, then he is not qualitative. Real honey does not melt when immersed in water.
- Put some honey in a spoon and turn it upside down. Honey mixed with water will immediately drop from the spoon. While the good quality honey will stay attached in the spoon.
- Take a piece of bread and immerse it in the honey. If the bread will continue to be strong, then this is pure honey. If the bread softens. It means that the honey is made with water.
- If you have iodine at home, pour a few drops in to the honey and some water to. If the mixture turns blue in color, this to this kind of honey is added starch or flour.
