Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Combine honey, cornstarch and seasonings in a microwave-safe dish. Whisk in 1/3 cup beet juice and vinegar. Microwave uncovered on HIGH 1 ½ minutes until thickened, stirring once. Add beets, cover and microwave on HIGH 2 to 3 minutes, until heated, stirring after 1 ½ minutes. Stir in butter. Let stand 3 minutes before serving. Serves 4.
