Honey is a processed flower nectar – it can be used in its pure form or as an ingredient in baking.
This sweet additive is in most cases stored in plastic containers for a long period of time.
Many of us like to stock up on this product in reserve, but it is important to follow the storage instructions.
Let's look into this issue in more detail.
Recommendations for storing honey
It is best stored at temperatures from -6 to +20. If it is very hot, the honey will stratify. At temperatures below -10, honey crystallizes quite quickly.
Honey is stored in a dark and dry place. If it is exposed to direct sunlight, it quickly heats up the jar and destroys most of the useful substances.
Our ancestors preferred to store honey in wooden barrels, but now experienced beekeepers prefer aluminum, glass or stainless steel containers.
Ceramics or clay are also an alternative to plastic.
