Honey is a valuable product not only in cooking, but also in folk medicine.
It can retain its beneficial properties for a long time. However, if stored incorrectly, this period is greatly reduced.
How to Store Honey at Home
A dry place is found for the product, where sunlight does not reach. The optimal storage temperature is between +6 and +25 °C. Honey should be kept away from the stove and oven.
The storage container should be tightly closed. The best material for honey containers is glass, clay and wood. A small amount of the product can be stored in stainless steel.
Can it be stored in the refrigerator?
Many housewives and experts argue about this. It is believed that it is preferable to store honey at room temperature rather than put it in a humid refrigerator. Experts claim that honey loses some of its vitamins and useful properties there.
A natural product will crystallize sooner or later. Only proper storage can help delay this process.
