Italian honey

Italian honey, cooking with honey healthy Italian food. Find out about the health benefits of honey.

Italian honey is known for its quality. The geographical position of Italy favors a wide range of flowers, creating the ideal conditions for a good quality product.

The most common type is millefiori that means a thousand flowers, which means that the bees go to different types of flowers.

Italian honey

There's a very particular honey typical from Sardinia called bitter honey. It leaves a light bitter taste and is really so so tasteful. Cooking with this honey will give the right taste of sweet, with no exageration.

The health benefits of honey are even stronger in this specialty, as it is astringent, anti-asthma and antiseptic to urinary system, but also especially indicated to light and important sore throat and bronchitis.

I was surprised when I found in a website the Sardinian abbamele . This is a local and artesanian product done cooking the honey with very low gas. It is won-der-ful over a piece of ricotta sheep cheese. Some agritourism here serve it as part of the antipasto.

Original delicacies

The first time I saw cooking with honey, using it as antipasto it seemed strange for me. Now...I look for it! Other than abbamele or bitter honey over ricotta, you can prepare honey dips: put a small bol with bitter honey besides a plate with fresh vegetables ready to be eaten as roman lettuce leaves, pelled carrots cut in long pieces, tomatoes and other. People just have to dip the vegetable into the honey bowl and eat it. It is different idea that I assure you pleases all!
